[quote]The controversy over MSG began with a single letter to the
editor of the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) in 1968
written by a Dr. Ho Man Kwok. The letter outlines symptoms of
“headache, a feeling of being flushed, being feverish” that occurred
after eating food at a Chinese restaurant, with Kwok asking if there
were other fellow readers interested in pursuing this line of study
(Kwok, 1968, 796). In response, a number of medical officials
rejoined with insider satire and sarcasm in genres as varied as
letters, poetry, and faux case studies, all mocking both Kwok and
the idea that MSG was harmful. Despite this initial disdain from the
medical community, media outlets took up these conversations as

medical fact and reported on MSG as an inherently dangerous
substance.[/quote][/quote]
I'm not sure if you purposely ended the quote there to make it look like MSG is being reported as an "inherently dangerous substance" but this is the sentence immediately after

"While there have been several studies that attempted to prove MSG is a universal cause of ‘Chinese Restaurant Syndrome,’ these studies are methodologically or otherwise flawed. The studies contained as few as 14 subjects, asked leading questions such as, “Do you think you get Chinese Restaurant Syndrome?” or were found to be not replicable by later studies".

The people who believe MSG makes them sick are the same people who believe autism is caused by vaccines. Dumbos. [/quote]

I’ve never heard of “Chinese restaurant syndrome”.  And we know that autism is not caused by vaccines.

AND we know that when we use Italian or Beef Gravy dry seasoning packets,  some curries, or  Cheetos, all of which have MSG, our heads will feel like they’re in a vice the next morning.
