I do not care about &quot;the lack of evidence tying MSG to negative health effects&quot;, I am affected. It is not racism, stereotyping or &quot;the nocebo effect&quot;, but something that is real.<p>One time that I had an MSG attack (racing heart) was when I cooked Zatarain&#x27;s at home. Or perhaps, according the author, I want to secretly vilify the creole? Clickbait drivel.<p>&quot;When it comes to MSG, the false connections are fairly innocuous for most people but may still cause unnecessary discomfort for some, either because they are experiencing the nocebo effect or depriving themselves of deliciousness.&quot;<p>I have been to 6 Asian countries for a time period of over 4 months total. I guess I must have been stereotyping them all along.
