Makes meat and veg nice and tasty. Good size for the amount you get. Arrived with top unsealed in shipping assuming.

I have had MonoSodium Glutamate (MSG) before in other food products here in the USA before, most notably it's used in the Chips/snacks industry especially doritos and pringles. I remember back in the late 90's early 00's that people were freaking out about MSG and how it gave you headaches and other bad side effects and that is where there term "Chinese Food Headache" came from, because people thought that that was were the MSG must have come from but actually it wasn't. Oddly enough MSG is more of a edamame flavor on the tongue by itself. There is hardly any saltiness to it since it has Sodium in its name, but it's more of a "Flavor enhancer" more than it is a salt. And just like EVERYTHING we eat and drink when used properly and not OVERUSED, it's just fine to use with meals of all kinds. SO this VERY large package of MSG should last a VERY long time when used sparingly. I've added it to all kinds of dishes lately and the foods flavor seems to be more....stronger?? I'm not sure but it seems to make flavors POP! and I like it.

I love this stuff! It’s much cheaper than accent and it’s all the same stuff. This adds so much flavor to my dishes and getting this size for the price makes it last a long time. I buy one of these each year and it lasts! Don’t be scared of using msg unless you have someone who has been very clear about being allergic to it, otherwise it is safe to use.

Do not believe lies about MSG!! It's a conspiracy to force us to eat not good food. Use MSG!!

Don't be fooled by all the "no MSG" advertising you see everywhere nowadays. MSG is NOT bad for you! It can be extracted from seaweed and many other natural, organic sources. Monosodium glutamate, in fact, is one of the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acids. This bottle of MSG is enough to last a family household for YEARS. You only need a tiny bit to really make a dish taste magical. I use it for soups, grilling, stir fries, and so so much more. Whenever I have friends over who have never seen raw MSG, I let them taste a tiny pinch. If you've heard of the fifth flavor sense, umami, but don't know how to explain it, the sensation of tasting raw MSG can explain it all. Of course, like anything, too much of anything is bad for you. In the case of MSG, adding too much will make your dish not incredibly appetizing and you will be very very thirsty afterwards. When cooking with this, I highly suggest adding it in tiny increments and tasting between each addition.
