Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) by any other name……

Hello, good people!

I had a great response from my recent post that listed all the names by which gluten can be called.  Thank you all for reading and responding.  Now I am responding to a request to reprint a similar list of alternative names for MSG.  So here is the list from a previous post written a few years ago.

Have you ever gone out to eat and after the meal you get a splitting headache?
This happens to me when there is MSG in the seasoning.  If you share this reaction, you could have an allergy to this food additive.  The following is a list of ingredients that manufacturers use to make you think their product is MSG free.

Monosodium Glutamate or MSG by any other name...?

• Calcium caseinate
• Glutamate
• Glutamic acid
• Hydrolyzed corn gluten
• Hydrolyzed protein (like wheat, vegetable protein or soy protein)
• Autolyzed yeast
• Gelatin
• Textured protein
• Monopotassium glutamate
• Sodium caseinate

Be sure to read the labels carefully and question ingredients that you don't recognize. Manufacturers are getting more creative every day.

peace and love
