" It does not have a distinct taste of its own, and how it adds flavor to other foods is not fully understood. Many scientists believe that MSG stimulates glutamate receptors in the tongue to augment meat-like flavors."


well, having tasted it on its own the article is half right. MSG is an indescribable taste, but for damn sure you can tell something weird is on your tongue. I'd classify it as a new taste alltogether. The article is just stating that it's not sweet or salty or sour etc. I consider the stimulation of receptors in my tongue a taste.

I always thought that people were deathly allergic to that shit :rolleyes

Sarcasm? Perish the thought. :rolleyes

Actually, I seriously didn't know what MSG stands for. I can't imagine it's not available over here too, but it has a different name (probably something farmsy, like "loveguttle" or "dalepowder". Or maybe "king's foil.").

[wreckreation]

I guess i gave you too much credit. >: It won't happen again.
But sadie didn't. Unless she is just our little box of trivia.

[sadie]

MSG sensitivity is a sensitivity to free glutamic acid that occurs
in food as a consequence of manufacture. All protein contains
glutamic acid bound in it, but only when glutamic acid has been
freed from protein prior to ingestion do people express MSG-
sensitivity reactions. Some unadulterated protein may also have
minute amounts of free glutamic acid associated with it, but MSG-
sensitive people report no adverse reactions following ingestion of
unadulterated protein. Any free glutamic acid freed from protein
by a manufacturing process before it is eaten can cause the MSG
reaction. The source of the hydrolyzed protein (soy, corn, wheat,
etc.,) appears to be irrelevant.

MSG is manufactured through a process of protein hydrolysis. When a product is 99% pure MSG, the product is called "monosodium glutamate" by the FDA and must be labeled as such. However, when a hydrolyzed protein contains less than 99% MSG, the FDA does not require that the MSG be identified. "Autolyzed yeast," "hydrolyzed soy protein," and "sodium caseinate," are examples of names given to hydrolyzed proteins on food labels.

Under FDA regulation, hydrolyzed protein products may be used as ingredients in other products without mention of the original
hydrolyzed protein product. For example, "hydrolyzed soy protein,"
when used in "flavoring(s)," "natural flavoring(s)," "natural
flavor(s)," and products called broth, bouillon, or natural chicken
flavoring, etc., does not have to be mentioned on product labels
when the food processor claims that the hydrolyzed protein is being
used for purposes other than flavoring. "Hidden Sources of MSG"
lists some of the ingredients presently used to hide MSG.

GHB isn't liquid xtc. GHB was developed as a legal alternative to steroids. It was supposedly less harmfull. Unfortunately is produces slightly euphoric and partly drunk side-effects. People call it lipid xtc out of ignorance (no offense). Mostly because it is a cheep club alternative. It has a slightly salty taste and a small bottlecap full poured in a beer is all that is needed to feel it's effects. It can easily kill you though if you take too much. Be warned.

[wreckreation]

Yeah, i was gonna say, it's not liquid x, but you're wrong about it being steroids. very wrong. completely wrong. Entirely different organ.
