Too much monosodium glutamate(MSG).

[jayter2010]

There's no indication that consuming even large amounts of MSG would cause one to feel sick. Secondly, using too much MSG in a food actually can make the food taste worse—not better. Therefore, it's unlikely you'd ever want to eat food that contains excess MSG.

Because it is a self-limiting substance, food processors use the least amount of MSG necessary for maximum flavor impact. In most cases, this means that processed foods contain only 0.1 to 0.8 percent of the food's weight as served. In the kitchen, this translates to one-half teaspoon of MSG per pound of meat or 4-6 servings of vegetables, casserole or soup.

How about you guys what your thoughts about having too much MSG to foods you're eating?

Luckily in India a common man is away from the usage of Mono sodium glutamate, as we have different variety of spices to prepare our dishes! Yes when we eat out side our homes we may have some amount of it through the foods we have it in restaurants! This would hardly make any difference as the frequency of eating food out side the homes is quite less in an average Indian family when compared with other countries! Thanks !
