It has come back. Say anything negative about MSG on Reddit and you'll be accused of being a racist. That said, msg is pretty great.

Eh, I got this once, too. It was specially face-palming because OP of that thread requested advice about a beef and vegs dish, and I suggested him to sub MSG with soy sauce. Typical witch hunting mentality, that's what happens when you don't kick out assumptive and context-ignoring people.

Soy sauce is basically gourmet MSG anyways.

So is fish sauce, miso paste, yaggi, marmite, better than bouillon, parmesan, mushrooms, tomato paste and many many more things.

And anytime you see hydrolyzed soy or wheat protein on an ingredient label.. that's just slightly less refined MSG.
