On a side note... MSG has never been proved to be harmful, even after more than 40 years of tests. It is consumed daily by about a third of the world's population, and occurs naturally by combining certain foods (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umami http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umami). The Western aversion to MSG is irrational, and misses on a potential alternative to table salt (which is actually more harmful). Apologies for being OT!
