What's the /ck/ verdict on MSG? Now that the negative effects have largely been proven to be a meme is there any reason why I shouldn't be adding it to my meals?

There's no conclusive evidence of this, even less evidence that for the nebulous idea that it's 'bad for you'

No, it's just like salt - a natural flavor enhancer. In fact, you can actually replace some of the salt in your dishes with MSG without losing any flavor, which leads to a healthier diet.

Nope. Go right ahead.
