MSG: Adding It To Everything For A Day; Supercharged Corn Chips

How do you know if something will taste incredible? Three little numbers on the back of the packaging: 621 (aka flavour enhancer 621, aka monosodium glutamate, aka MSG)! We go deep and ask the big questions like: is MSG safe? And more importantly, does it work on hot cross buns? We also cover its links to racism and how to use it best in cooking. Then things get a little weird and we get a bit obsessive about the best corn chips and Ben adds MSG to martinis. Follow along on Instagram or TikTok to see the unhinged visuals of what we mention on the show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
