[quote=JABAROOTOO,37114]MSG is indeed a controversial product these days but it has been banned as an additive in almost every product in Australia. Some people have very sensitive reations to it and I personallyavoid it wherever possible. I find it strange that in China where there are so many other more natural and interesting flavourings like chili etc that it is used so much. It was in fact introduced to China last century by of all people the Japanese when they occupied the country and is considered to be addictive so we would want to eat more of the food which contains it. (explains high contents in Pizza Hut pizza perhaps) So it is not really a traditional Chinese food flavouring. New research is linking heavy consumption of MSG to the increased occurance of deseases affecting the brain, like Alzheimer's. Food for thought!!!!!!!!! as China's now aging population is the first generation to have consumed MSG for most of their lives. 3 score and ten years[/quote]
