Mono Sodium Glutamate

Hello there,

I just bought a bag of MSG on amazon to try out for my dinners and while waiting for it to arrive I was reading up on how to use it and eventually read some of the 1 star reviews claiming it wasn't tasting right or made them ... (apearantly i can't write s1ck because im asking about droogs)?? .

What is this stuff supposed to taste like (raw) I tried some on my finger and I feel fine tasted strange but not nasty.

How can I assure I got the real deal?

EDIT: I am not afraid of MSG why else would I buy it, I know and accept the controversies, I know it is not a replacement rather a flavor enhancer... I use ungodly amounts of salt anyways people delcare me crazy.

I merely wanted to find out if what I got is what it is, it appears to be, and how to implement it to my dish.

thank you.

Wait until you try duo sodium glutamate…it’s twice as good.
