The Secret Racist History of MSG | The Red Pill

If you’re “allergic” to MSG or you’ve heard “Ah boy, Ah girl, don’t eat this kind of place ah! They use MSG, sure your hair fall out!” - then you should ask yourself, have you ever been told WHY Monosodium Glutamate is bad for you? Let us break it down!

[valdir]

my common answer when people where worried that I use MSG was "well it's wildly used in asian cuisine and they are fine".

You cannot have a complete Filipino meal without Msg. It just enhances the flavor 2 folds.

MSG also suffers a kind of "scary chemical" name bias. "NaCL" sounds more artificial than "salt". If it had a name like "savoury salt" from the beginning then it probably wouldn't have as bad a rep.

I'm a personal Chef and back in college I actually did a research paper on the Sigma of MSG which turns out to be ALL about RACISM! Back in the late '60s and early '70s, NYC Asian restaurants were starting to get more and more popular and sales started getting hirer and hirer. Some or I should say Most of course didn't like it. So secretly Non-Asian restaurant owners took Asian food to laboratories to find out what was in it. It was discovered that a form of salt MSG Monosodium L Glutamate enhanced the flavor of salt and made the food taste more savory. So we know what happens next?? Those Non-Asian restaurants started screaming MSG is bad for you just to make real Asian restaurants suffer. Unfortunately, the bad word of mouth, and also public bashing made sales drop, and made people scared to consume MSG. So Asian restaurants were forced to remove it from their cooking. That's why when you go to some Asian restaurants on the menu in bold lettering NO MSG. This is a shame because now after many years of research they have determined MSG is not harmful, or life-threatening. The scare campaign was actually a HATE campaign! There are many products out on the market that most consumers eat that have always contained MSG but they didn't mention those because they were trying to put Asian restaurants out of business. Today you can find MSG at/in KFC, Chick-fil-A, Campbell's soups, Doritos, Pringles, and a whole lot more!!! I use it in 90% of my cooking especially baking when salt is one of the ingredients. I get RAVE reviews for my Cinnamon Rolls!! Oh, by the way, I got an "A" on my research paper and my professor was originally from Vietnam! 😛❤🔥💋

My Japanese huband uses MSG "ajinomoto" as a seasoning forever. It makes food taste much better! I love it!

I think it has to do more with how much sodium and sugar is in American style Chinese food that makes people feel like shit after eating it.

[JadeMythriil]

Considering how much fatty foods americans eat, i think MSG is the least of their problems.

Lest Americans forget, the secret spice in McDonald’s fries is ‘Savory Salt’. The tried and true MSG.

[caiuscosades]

Msg has less sodium by volume than salt so it’s better than salt in all the conventional ways you would use salt.

[A_Dopamine_Molecule]

The reputation of MSG is basically a different version of the dihydrogen monoxide social experiment... If you look it up you'll see what I mean.

[AwokenEntertainment]

it amazes me how many people have never heard anything but bad things about msg to this day..

[maxwhite]

Love msg. 12% sodium. salt is 40% sodium as a food science graduate. it's more healthy than salt

[WillXtinger]

"I can't read it it's in Chinese" literally there's only 3 Chinese characters ( actually japanese pretty sure) the rest are in Latin letters.

[ceoesteban]

[sskaioken]
