If you think it's an unhealthy additive in Chinese food that makes you dizzy and sick, you're wrong and need to listen up, activists say | Analysis by Jessie Yeung
If you've heard of the term"MSG," you might have also heard of its common -- but inaccurate -- connotations.
For years, monosodium glutamate, a food additive known as MSG, has been branded as an unhealthy processed ingredient mainly found in Chinese food, despite a lack of supporting scientific evidence.
— Why Use MSG January 14, 2020 The campaign proposed a new definition for"Chinese restaurant syndrome" in the Merriam-Webster --"an outdated term that falsely blamed Chinese food containing MSG, or monosodium glutamate, for a group of symptoms."In response, Merriam-Webster tweeted on Wednesday that it would be"reviewing the term and revising accordingly.
— Mission Chinese Food October 3, 2014 Amid all the hullabaloo, restaurateurs like celebrity chef David Chang, who produced and starred in the Netflix series"Ugly Delicious," and Anthony Bourdain, the late host of CNN's award-winning series"Parts Unknown," have worked to change public perception.The fears surrounding MSG were just a"psychosomatic myth," Chang said in a tweet.
