What is your favorite store bought chicken stock?

I'm making a jambalaya and I don't have the time to make my own chicken stock. What is the best store bought alternative? I read that kitchen basics is pretty good, but I need some other input. Thanks.

their suggestions:
paste: More Than Gourmet Glase de Poulet Gold Classic Roasted Chicken Stock
liquid: Swanson Certified Organic Chicken Broth
concentrate: Savory Choice Liquid Chicken Broth Concentrate
unsalted: Perfect Addition Unsalted Chicken Stock (gelatin)
base: Better Than Bouillon Organic Chicken Base
go to alberstons and get some swanson

Cooks Illustrated does a taste test of all the leading brands
Swanson's Organic rated # 1
Kitchen Basics - Not recommended

Cook's also liked the Better Than Bouillon Organic Chicken Base - and it's much cheaper than canned broth.

I use my own that I make and freeze in cubes but when I need more or for whatever reason I use chicken base. The above is good but the Tones at Sam's Chicken Base and Beef Base are both good.
However I found the best chicken base is Vigro's. Hard to find. I found it at Wal Mart once but not since and not at Albertson's. I'll find it again. It has the best flavor in my opinion and yes they are much cheaper.

one day im going to do a taste test of store bought stock vs a very quick chicken stock.
like chicken wings, water to cover and simmer.... maybe compare a 20min, 30min, 45min, 1hr one.

I like Imagine Foods Organic Free Range Chicken Broth. No added salt at all and has some good old fat in it, tastes the closest to homemade I know of.
Haven't tried Kitchen Basics chicken stock but I have tried their beef stock and it is
ETA: Pacific brand is fairly good too, though not as good as Imagine.
