I like the instructions with cooking the meat too, I appreciate the detail. BTW it is probably the salt making you you thirsty when you eat high MSG foods as they are very high in sodium too, and your body needs water to reach equilibrium after eating lots of salt. I always get thirsty after high sodium foods myself at least. So it might not be the MSG. And for the instant noodles, I pour out half the sauce then pour a teeny bit of water in and it greatly reduces the salt, that might help you.

I'm not a health professional, but personally I'm of the opinion that MSG (like any artifically-produced food additive) is best minimised or avoided altogether. I'm also fully aware that my favourite instant noodles are MSG-laden. MSG does have side effects that affects individuals differently - I get very thirsty after eating food with MSG and the thirst lasts for hours even with a lot of water. I've also had people tell me they have severe allergic reactions to MSG. If you have a browse around holistic health websites, you'll find some interesting arguments for and against MSG. Now if only I can wean myself off those tom yum instant noodles... Hello hilla, thanks for taking the time to comment.

There is nothing wrong with it. It all started with one scientist that felt ill after eating Chinese take out. Other than that, there is no research saying that it is bad. MSG is bad from some sort of sea kelp, and that's it :\ You mentioned MSG in some other recipes, but I thought that you should know that there is nothing wrong with MSG. there is a huge misconception behind MSG.
