[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sensitive to MSG for sure. I can definitely tolerate some amount of it but will get a horrible migraine when it’s one of the top ingredients. Learned that the hard way with things like breakfast sausage and canned broth.

I can only recall one time where I had any sort of reaction after eating Chinese food. I was up in the middle of the night feeling anxious and nauseous. Not even sure that was from MSG since it was different from my usual reaction.

Also, two things: MSG is neurotoxic and a sensitivity is not an allergy.[/quote]

Can someone do a sarcasm check on this for me?[/quote]

I don't detect sarcasm, just someone who believes MSG can be one of the main ingredients in sausage.[/quote]

I’m the one who posted that. You all are truly stupid. Go find one of those packages of Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage, the kind that comes in a big tube, and you let me know what ingredients are in it. Also go check out some of the cheaper brands of canned broth and let me know what you see as one of the top ingredients.

I avoid these kind of foods now not only because of the MSG but also because they are gross. The reactions I had were when I was much younger and broke.

I am literally a neuroscientist, so I know of what I speak. As a PP noted, glutamate is the main excitatory neurotransmitter in our nervous system. Too much of it is not a good thing, and it causes a process called excitotoxicity, which can kill the neurons. Here is one of many peer reviewed articles on the topic so you can educate your ignorant asses. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7854587/[/quote]
