My cat ate store-bought chicken broth. Is onion powder toxic?

Question

I gave my cat some chicken broth (store bought) to ad moisture to her dry food. I didn't give her a lot but I just read that broth has onion powder in it and that it, and the sodium, is toxic to cats . Is she going to be ok this once or should I worry? Pet's info: Cat | Siamese | Female | spayed | 8 lbs

If you gave her just a small amount she should be fine, but don't give it to her anymore, she doesn't need her food moisturized at all unless she has teeth disease (in that case she needs to be on canned food only).
