Reddit reviews Marshalls Creek Spices Msg, 14 Ounce

You can find it just about anywhere.

I'm really not trying to split hairs here, but what is considered a large quantity of MSG? Are we talking about literally eating a huge jar of straight MSG or are we looking at the effects of a strict fast food/boxed food diet that so many of people have (where most of what you consume comes prepackaged or in a box and MSG is in every ingredient list)? I'm genuinely curious here because I've always associated my headaches and stomach upset that I get when eating out or boxed food with the MSG and I've got a friend who is terrified of feeding MSG to her kids because of neurotoxins.
I know about umami and the history of glutamates, but how different is this from the jars of MSG or the additives in boxed food?

Ingredients: MSG

Description: No MSG

As much as I'm not a fan of the stuff, MSG is probably the reason you're not quite there on the taste... Like other posters have said, the powder ones with a mix of dairy and then a sprinkle of MSG would probably be the way to get the taste you're looking for

I grew up with the stuff in my house. It's great on steaks and burgers. My mom hated the MSG scare and all the problems with finding it. Unfortunately we were living in New Mexico and had no Asian markets to go to, so we went without until we moved to Washington state. To this day, she has a big bottle of MSG and Kitchen Bouquet at all times. They are both amazing flavor enhancers. As my mom told me, people she knew that had an aversion to the name still loved her cooking and never knew what her secrets were. She knew how to cook with umami before she knew it had a name.

There's lots of things you can use that are naturally high in MSG which you may find in bulk stores, supplement stores, specialty stores. Yeast extracts, soup bases, bullion. Kombu, dashi, soy sauce, bonito Flake for asian flavour dishes.

also you can just buy some on Amazon? https://www.amazon.ca/Marshalls-Creek-Spices-Msg-Ounce/dp/B000N8EV8G

The hell are you on about? I can get a jar from Amazon if I don't feel like going to the grocery store.

Just throw it in a spice mix or drop a bit in whatever sauce you're making.

MSG, I believe I saw it in a grocery store I think CVS or Vons I can't remember. It's also available here http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000N8EV8G/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/183-7238995-0328866

Amazon sells huge containers at a fraction of the cost of corner store prices.

I've seen it for sale by the canister at my local supermarket. I'm sure you could call around and find it... an asian market might be more likely to carry it, as it's often used in asian food. Or just buy some right off amazon... https://www.amazon.com/Marshalls-Creek-Spices-Msg-Ounce/dp/B000N8EV8G

It's not terribly hard to get your hands on it. :)
