Just bought myself some msg, what are some good things to put it on? I added some to steak and it was pretty good.

Is there any reason for me NOT to replace all my salt usage with MSG instead?

From what I hear it's basically salt, but better. No downsides.

Throw it away. Stop being a lazyass and learn to build flavor. Only shitass ghetto tier restaurants use that garbage.

The glutamate in MSG is chemically similar to a natural neurotransmitter, possibly explaining the symptoms, which may include facial pressure, chest pain, numbness, headache, flushing and sweating. Although research has failed to identify a definite link between MSG and the syndrome, Mayo Clinic experts suggest that a small percentage of people may be MSG-sensitive and experience these symptoms after ingesting it

okay? It has less sodium than table salt. See what you like it on. Also, if there are some healthy foods that you would like to eat more of, you could try adding a little msg to them as seasoning and enjoy them more.

Not a good salt substitute. You need the chlorine from NaCl

Eggs.

Also contrary to what some are suggesting in this thread, MSG does not replace salt. It's best used in combination. maybe 4:1 salt to MSG ratio.
