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.
yeah kojima really is a genius
I’m reminded of how, in the early days of colonialism, it was believed that corn was incredibly bad for you and that it would turn you into a savage, and the only thing that broke people of this belief was enough of them being subjected to tough winters and being forced to eat it until their cognitive dissonance forced them to retroactively decide that they never believed in that silly superstition anyway.
Corn is super fucking bad for you though, when it was introduced to the Mississipian culture in the 700s they had a huge long term health decline until they got beans.

MSG is amazing and i put it on everything, but eating a mouthful of MSG tastes exactly like good pussy ngl
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.
