Does powdered chicken stock go bad?

This isn't the kind of thing that "goes bad." There just isn't enough water in powdered broth base for it to spoil. That said, the flavor will eventually degrade, but you have probably at least a year on the shelf without any noticeable degradation.

Can you use out of date chicken stock cubes?

It'll be fine. It's a best before date, not a use by or expiry date. There is very little risk of contracting food borne illnesses from consuming food after its best before date. It's use by dates you need to observe, for things like soft cheese, meats and other high risk food.

Is boxed chicken broth good after expiration date?

Though sealed chicken broth has a pretty long shelf life, chicken broth actually can go bad. Commercial chicken broth is packaged in aseptic containers, and if properly stored, can have a shelf life of around a year beyond the printed date. The same shelf life applies to chicken broth packaged in cans.

What happens if you use old chicken broth?

Expired chicken broth can spoil your entire recipe; if you have had it for a while, you will need to make sure it hasn't gone off before pouring it into your ingredients. Spoilt chicken broth won't taste right, the color and appearance will be off, and it will smell.
