Got this in a migraine alert today. This is a portion, the link follows:

"Steingarten argues that perhaps the North American phenomenon of “Chinese-restaurant syndrome” — the headaches and other symptoms often blamed on consumption of MSG — is nothing more than hypochondria and food-phobia."

Uninformed food "expert"

I did not read the article. But what a silly person to even think that. It's right up there thinking Global Warming isn't happening.

Well, I read the article AND posted a reply. Told them what my post-doc told me about how restaurants in the US, Japan, and China measure MSG.

Doubt my reply will have much of an impact, though.
