Marshalls Creek Spices Msg, 14 Ounce

My product arrived in a very timely manner. The freshness seal pulled up with the lid, but there was a fully intact outer plastic tamper proof seal, so nothing has been compromised. The texture is as fine as table salt and it delivers a great umami punch, without being salty.

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.

This spice does wonders

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.

I dont care what anybody says, msg just makes everything taste better than salt. I use it in everything. A bit pricy but well worth the flavor. And never any headaches or stomach issues which I suspect are mostly psychosomatic due to bad publicity in the past. Noone has ever complained about my cooking yet.
