What IS msg? I must've missed the freakout (but probably only because I was a wee lad when it apparently broke out).
Some people are allergic to MSG, but you have to realize that some people are also allergic to eggs, wheat, and sugar. MSG is a naturally occuring chemical in foods. Originally, MSG was recognized by a Japanese scientist as a "fifth" flavor in soup broth that didn't fit into the typical categories (bitter, sweet, salt, sour). He devised a way to single out this fifth flavor and that's how we got MSG.

Google: monosodium glutamate
