Monosodium Glutamate

So I've been thinking lately about how much I like food with MSG. Actually, that's not exactly true. More truthfully it has been brought to my attention recently that some food I tend to eat regularly happens to have MSG in its ingredients. Now I, as most people who have seen homstarrunner.com, thought that MSG had negative effects on stomach lining for at least hand drawn cartoon girls on lined filler paper. However, according to a Mayo Clinic page about MSG, it turns out that MSG is generally considered safe for humans to eat. The FDA even considers it a food product. I for one am glad that the makers or Doritos have had the presence of mind to include MSG in their products to increase the savoriness.
