MSG

Monosodium glutamate

Monopotassium glutamate

Glutamate

Glutamic Acid

Vegetable Protein Extract

Yeast Extract

Autolyzed Yeast

Yeast food or nutrient (not 100% sure)

Textured Protein (not 100% sure)

Calcium Caseinate

Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein

Flavour enhancer (could be a name for it as well)

  1. There are a couple that I didn't see on your list but is added to a lot of different foods now.

    Disodium Inosinate

    Disodium Guanylate

    These two ingredients usually show up together in the ingredient label.  


  2. I am a former chef and there is a load in soup bases to, and any processed food that need a shelve life of more than 1 week. I to try to stay away from them, but even as a veggie or vegan the veggie soup stock can have them, best in alot of ways is to make things your self, veg are cheap and so make stock's and other things from scratch, I used to make my own ketchup but now as I am a diabetic, I stay away from processed sugar, only honey, raw sugar now.

    BUt it is not a question of hidden MSG products but the type of product with it as an ingredient or base component.
