thats not a real thing, Glutamate is incredibly common in your body, completely dwarfing whatever you take in your food

It's a red flag that the restaurant is lazy in their technique and incapable of developing flavors using other methods which will impart a greater depth of flavor to the food. For example, instead of roasting their tomatoes or peppers or sauteing their tomatoe paste, they'll just dump them in the pot raw; instead of spending the time to develop a rich stock, they'll dump a handful in a weak broth; instead of using powdered porcini or seaweed, they'll throw in a handful of MSG. Those other techniques add far more depth than fucking MSG. It's just a lazyass chef letting lazyass cooks get away with being lazy fucks.

tl;dr run away, quickly, from any shithole that uses MSG.

MSG is horrible for you anyway. Those chink rat fuckers put it in all their food so it's tastier, but MSG actually cuts your taste receptors so you are more sensitive to flavor. MSG is very unhealthy for you, it's basically chemical crap they throw in to "hook you" on their food.

Every scientific/medical journal says otherwise. That being said there are better ways to add flavor.

[Anonymous No.9206545]

>>9206513
"every scientific/medical journal" is bought out by the FDA and wants to approve unhealthy foods due to lobbyists
