It's a type of seasoned salt, that is especially popular in Australia.

It's just chicken seasoning, the Australians put on their chips (french fries) and other food.

You can buy chicken seasoning in most countries, although I will stick to using it on chicken rather than on chips.

You can also make your own, it's just onion powder, garlic powder, celery salt, paprika, chicken bouillon and monosodium glutamate with some curry powder.

It's pretty tasty, but it is a salt, so use sparingly.

My experience, it's not salt to go on french fries like BNW is saying. It's dehydrated chicken, salt and MSG, so two different products with the same name?

That sounds like the packets for chicken ramen, perhaps with added celery salt and paprika. I throw these packets away, but they might be OK used sparingly to salt unseasoned chicken.

My thought exactly or one of many spices we get that is primarily sodium. I don't think I am going to go out of my way to find it. I have enough salt based spices already.

It's only nine bucks on Amazon, so I figured what the heck? And ordered some. Will revisit this discussion after I've played around with it.

I have some. It's just a seasoned salt (no chicken in it!). I got it on the Amazon.

It was first created by an Australian called Peter Brinkworth in the back of his poultry store,Brinkworth Poultry, Game and Seafood – a wholesale food supplier in Gawler in Australia.

Keen’s is an interesting addition. It’s an Australian blend developed in Tasmania in the 19th century and, while curry powders abroad usually contain cumin for its distinctive “curry” taste, Keen’s does not. This may explain why its mild blend of sweet spices doesn’t dominate when chicken salt is used as a chip seasoning.
