What do you use it on? Everything?I use MSG/Accent all the time for decades. It's in my all-purpose house blend seasoning I make.

When you use too much, what happens? Do you get the weird edge of face/scalp sensations?I have it on hand, and use it primarily when cooking Chinese food. The only time I ever have an issue is if I use to much, so I make it a point not to use too much.
I get the headache that people claim you don't get with MSG. It was a very consistent reaction. Consistent enough to not be coincidence. It wasn't debilitating, but annoying. I do continue to use MSG for various dishes, but in moderation, I do feel it makes a difference in the final outcome of the recipe.When you use too much, what happens?

Interesting. I have never gotten a headache from MSG (that I know of), but I used to get this very bizarre sensation around the edge of my face and into my scalp. It felt like all the muscles were pulling in the opposite direction from their neighbour muscles. I have met a number of people who have had that reaction to MSG. Many of them called it a headache. Yes, annoying, but not worse than that. I haven't had that reaction in a couple of decades. I don't keep any MSG powder in my kitchen. I tend to use fish sauce and other natural sources of MSG.I get the headache that people claim you don't get with MSG. It was a very consistent reaction. Consistent enough to not be coincidence.

Monosodium glutamate is safe for consumption by most people. I don't see anything dangerous about it.does anyone use it?
I Heard years ago that it was chemically harmful to the human body. But there are some people who share by it. Opinions please.
