Pic is bullshit, but why bother with it if you have perfectly fine spices.

>>11504617
I take in way more msg that human being should and I've never experienced a single negative effect from it. Certainly nothing on that troll list. But that's just me.

>>11504617
>a bunch of unsourced bullshit
the answer is YES op
and also google glutamate excitotoxicity and contemplate your existence

Maybe we can nip this in the bud:
MSG instantly separates into sodium and glutamate ions the second it hits water. There's no way for your body to know if such ions originated from MSG, tomatoes, broccoli, walnuts, etc.

If you experience genuine excitotoxicity caused by glutamate, it means your blood brain barrier is fucked up and you have far, far more horrifying things to worry about. People who have a genuine glutamate allergy probably exist, but their life would be a hell, unable eat anything that's even vaguely umami, or has been more than lightly cooked, let alone dried or fermented. Or legumes, nuts, dairy, bread, oats AND SO ON. No, not even tendies.

Reminder that anti-MSG propaganda is actually crypto anti-Chinese propaganda created by racist white Americans. Never mind that it was a chinamen doctor in America who first brought the idea of Chinese Restaurant Syndrome to public attention.

I am making near the entire thanksgiving dinner for my family, and almost every dish, savory or sweet, I've added some msg to, save the cranberry sauce, all made from scratch. You just have to learn to add a little bit. It isn't so far off salting your food properly. Brings out the taste.

>>11504617
are you retarded?

>>11505601
this board convinced me to buy msg maybe 2 years ago and i use it in almost everything since.

>>11504617
Not everything, but that's more of a matter of taste and culinary sense than health. Chinese restaurant syndrome is bullshit.

>>11505585
I fucking loathe China but Americans can't even be racist against China right and that really chaps my fuckin' ass.

Yes.

what does the BBB have to do with it?

this thread is fucking hilarious

Watch this from beginning to end immediately.

MSG allergies are made up by attention-seeking, busybody, middle-aged white women. They are always searching for something to complain about and P.F. Changs Beef and Broccoli is an easy target.

Fun fact: "Yeast extract" is just a method of producing MSG. If it says "yeast extract" on the ingredients that's MSG in disguise. They do this because white women won't buy it otherwise.

Pic related: My favorite prepackaged commercial broth thing. It's got MSG.

>>11505700
Can't believe you missed the hydrolyzed soy protein. Probably a lot more common to replace MSG than yeast extract.

>>11504617
Side effects lists are pointless without occurrence percentages. You could come up with a similar list for shit like tap water, sugar, beans and pretty much anything.

>>11505708
Good catch. Noted.

>>11504617
You shouldn't because not every dish actually benefits from the umami flavor of MSG, but you should use it where appropriate.

>>11504976
That's not a "troll list" you cucklord, those are negatives people have experienced. Just like people can be deadly allergic to peanut butter, they can have adverse effects to man-made flavorniggering spicing.

>>11505708
It is. This is the easiest way to shut down MSGtards. When they claim sensitvity ask them if they've ever had trouble with literally any processed, packaged, frozen, or fast food.

>>11505700
"Better than boullion" . Yeah, shits delicious

>>11505724
There is no evidence for non-psychosomatic negative reactions to MSG that aren't part of a wider problem with glutamates in general. If you give someone who thinks they have an MSG sensitivity something with MSG without telling them they won't react, if you give them something without MSG in it and tell them it has MSG they will react to that.

>>11505724
No, it's a troll list. Man-made purified food chemicals are in fact much safer than most natural foods, since there's no allergy risk

Here's a nice side of bullshit that idiots will lap up because it's in a spiffy infographic.

You're a fucking moron of a troll. All of the most delicious foods have high levels of natural glutamic acid.

>>11505743
Here's another bullshit. /pol/ and /fit/ (same people) love this one

>>11505743
I fucking love the retarded electric alkaline niggers. Dr. Sebi and those other hucksters found a genius way to profit from the atrocious diet and poor health of black Americans. They say some of the stupidest shit ever.
>mucus causes all illness and disease
>eat alkaline (not acidic) foods to clear the body of mucus
>eat electric foods that still have their life energy
>decolonize your palate
>africans aren't meant to eat meat

>>11505585
>muh racism
No, MSG hysteria had nothing to do with being anti-Chinese and everything to do with granola hippies screeching about food additives and indulging hypochondriac fantasies.

>>11505590
this, subbing part msg for salt works great

>>11506053
No, asshole, modern ice cream has nothing to do with its origins in 17th century Europe because people today are fat and can't stop their insulin-craving guts.

Misdirecting non-sequiturs are fun and easy!

I bought MSG recently. Don't use it much, I expected it to be much more intense. It's underwhelmingly mild.

Who cares about MSG. DHMO is the real problem!

>>11504617
The controls are clunky but the story makes them worth playing.

No he was right the first time. Twat
