I'm craving cup noodles and processed foods. The flavor is so good and they're so cheap.

Yeah, msg isn't that bad, occurs naturally in most of the shit you eat anyway, adds more flavor with less sodium than salt.

Nah, MSG is terrible for you. When I want something like that, I cook some rice noodles with chicken stock, soy sauce, sea salt, lime, and just a bit of siracha. Add more soy sauce, siracha, or lime to taste. Goes great with chicken, green onions, and bean sprouts thrown in.

I read recently that MSG isn't nearly as bad as people have been saying it is.

This says it's mainly bullshit that MSG has any adverse effects.

Real sodium isn't bad for you unless you have a blood pressure condition.

it's more or less proven that it makes you hungry again, which is a negative all on its own.
