I have an MSG reaction, and I did not encounter in anywhere I ate. This may be because MSG syndrome occurs mainly if you consume MSG on an empty stomach. It's most often added to soup, and in the US, soup is a first course. In China it is a last course, so you have a full stomach by the time you consume it. Larry
