Again: there is no debate that MSG is stigmatized in the US. You can&#x27;t draw conclusions from that! All sorts of things are stigmatized that shouldn&#x27;t be, and there are other things that aren&#x27;t stigmatized that probably should be.<p>I&#x27;ll ask you the same thing I&#x27;ve asked the other two people on this thread who&#x27;ve reported personal experience with MSG sensitivity. Have you tried the things I listed here?<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=10866718" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=10866718</a><p>I ask because, again, it would be pretty fascinating to find a sensitivity to MSG that <i>wasn&#x27;t</i> correlated with a sodium or glutamate sensitivity. MSG instantaneously breaks into sodium and glutamate in liquid (such as in your stomach).
