MSG is good and gets too much of a bad rap for being bad for you because of xenophobes. That’s it, that’s the post.

    GOOD post.

    No seriously MSG occurs naturally in a lot of stuff, like mushrooms. You’re not going to get cancer or anything for putting a bit of it in your fried rice or anything. It’s probably less harmful than salt. MSG is good folks.

    I’m reminded of how, in the early days of colonialism, it was believed that corn was incredibly bad for you and that it would turn you into a savage, and the only thing that broke people of this belief was enough of them being subjected to tough winters and being forced to eat it until their cognitive dissonance forced them to retroactively decide that they never believed in that silly superstition anyway.
