For fellow MSG victims, here’s some help:

Some surprising sources that will get you even though there’s no MSG in the label.
Chicken broth is naturally high in MSG, but because it’s natural it doesn’t have to be shown on the label. Very common ingredient in canned soups that don’t even say chicken on the label. (Campbell’s especially bad. Even Progresso which claims “no added MSG” has a lot of soups I love but can’t eat because they are based on chicken stock.) This started me making my own soups in large batches. So I not only evade the MSG monster, I save a lot of money, too. Win-win.
Thanks for the link. Very helpful!
