Monosodium Glutamate -MSG- ? Non-GMO ? Gluten-Free ? Vegan ? OU Kosher Certified - 400g-14oz

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, one of the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acids. Monosodium glutamate is found naturally in tomatoes, cheese and other foods. MSG is used in the food industry as a flavor enhancer with an umami taste that intensifies the meaty, savory flavor of food, as naturally occurring glutamate does in foods such as stews and meat soups. MSG as a flavor enhancer balances, blends, and rounds the perception of other tastes. This product is certified Kosher (Pareve) by the Orthodox Union
