Oxo

Oxo is a brand of food products, including stock cubes, herbs, and spices, owned by Premier Foods in the United Kingdom. The brand is best known for its Oxo cube, a concentrated stock cube used in cooking to add flavor to various dishes.

History[edit]

The Oxo brand was first introduced in 1899 by the Liebig's Extract of Meat Company. The original product was a meat extract, which was later developed into the now-famous stock cube in 1910. The brand gained popularity during World War I when it was included in soldiers' rations.

Products[edit]

Oxo offers a variety of products, including:

  • Oxo Cubes: Concentrated stock cubes available in different flavors such as beef, chicken, and vegetable.
  • Oxo Stock Pots: Gel-based stock pots that dissolve easily in hot water.
  • Oxo Herbs and Spices: A range of dried herbs and spices for cooking.

Usage[edit]

Oxo cubes are typically dissolved in hot water to create a stock or broth, which can be used as a base for soups, stews, and sauces. They can also be crumbled directly into dishes to enhance flavor.

Marketing[edit]

Oxo has been known for its memorable advertising campaigns, including the long-running "Oxo Family" television commercials in the UK, which depicted a typical British family using Oxo products in their daily meals.
