Miranda Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 hi Siggy I read somewhere... god knows if it it true or not... that one reason Chicken broth tastes so good is that it has a lot of MSG in it. no need to add more, it comes from the chicken. I am sure the cube makers are adding it, however I suspect that condensing the broth to cubes will net the same amount of MSG. that is a question of price mostly. My lovely Wife has pushed us to avoid Ramen and the foiled flavor. sure is convenient. miranda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrswanson1 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Monosodium glutamate (MSG, also known as sodium glutamate) is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, one of the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acids. Monosodium glutamate is found in tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, potatoes, mushrooms, and other vegetables and fruits. No mention of chickens, so I'm going to say NO to Miranda.

What if the chicken is fed a diet of tomatoes, parmesan cheese, potatoes, mushrooms and other vegetables and fruits? I bet that sucker would have MSG in it then!

I have read in a few places that it is in animals(chickens cows and fish...) so I dunno what to think here. :-D fun stuff who shall we trust? miranda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZinZA Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I suspect feeding chickens on tomatoes, parmesan cheese and mushrooms - so that they taste good - would get you accused of animal cruelty Sent by Jedi mind control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youngeyes Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 It's not MSB. It's MBS. Matzoh Ball Soup. My Yiddish Grandmother never put anything in her soup other than what came from the chicken. Jewish penicillin. Cures anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
