racist msg bullshit

So many of these posts in this topic. Its literally go nothing to do with racism. It has to do with health. For example my mother dislikes it because her knuckles swell up.

I myself had an sodium attack where I felt like a I was hung over after eating a bowl of Maruchan ramen (with added hot sauce and soy).

I live in NC where supposedly racism is rampant (its not) but despite this I have never heard anyone try to tie their dislike of MSG to Asian people.

It's actually lower in sodium than standard salt so it might be better for you.

But here is the thing, most places that use it dont replace the salt they use it in addition to that. When I am making a recipe with msg, I almost always lower the amount of salt to compensate.

wtf that's why it's so good

I can't even find MSG in stores to put on my own chicken it sucks

A lot of Walmarts should carry it, it WILL NOT say MSG but looks like the brand on the left, the one on the right is the one you can find at Asian supermarkets.
