[quote=Anonymous]There are some studies that have shown that MSG can cause issues when dissolved in hot liquid in large quantities and the consumer drinks them on an empty stomach. This tracks with my experience - back when I was in the throes of an eating disorder, I decided that my one meal that day was going to be going out and having a bowl of pho (and eat around the noodles), and I started having the most bizarre reaction - I thought I was going to pass out or have a heart attack. I finally asked the kitchen what was in it and they said they used MSG in the broth. I’ve never had issues any other time, and have eaten pho at that same place again, but I never eat brothy soups on an empty stomach. You people find racism in the strangest places. [/quote]
