MSG is good and gets too much of a bad rap for being bad for you because of xenophobes. That’s it, that’s the post.
GOOD post.
No seriously MSG occurs naturally in a lot of stuff, like mushrooms. You’re not going to get cancer or anything for putting a bit of it in your fried rice or anything. It’s probably less harmful than salt. MSG is good folks.
… I thought it was a salt?
Kinda wondered if that was why it gives me headaches. Its the same thing that happens when I gorge on salted popcorn or eat a bag of salted potato chips in one sitting.
It is. It’s the sodium in the MSG that gives that effect of dehydrating you.
