Is this an actual thing? She's never said anything about msg before except this one time.
I always assumed it was a meme.

It's a meme.

i mean msg has a lot of salt in it so maybe

If you use msg, cut out a portion of the usual amount of salt you use. Msg still contains sodium, it'll make you thirsty

What did you make her for dinner? That's very sweet of you to cook for her. :)

Puttanesca pasta, i'm a worthless NEET so I might as well be useful.

Yeah that's what I figured, I used way more anchovies than I usually would and I told her that but she was convinced it was MSG.
Honestly just wanted her to like it more :(

Man you're taking me BACK I don't want to be 21 anymore.
As for the MSG, yes what other anons are saying are correct. It's still pretty salty so you gotta adjust your salt ratio if you still use it. Personally, I dunno why you'd use MSG, especially for puttanesca. I would've left the sauce alone and just salt my pasta water to get any extra saltiness if you really wanted that.
But, again, anchovies man. Little buggers are pungent enough!

Msg is a different compound from salt. It still has sodium like salt, but its less sodium than salt

>> No.14673683
