Does corned beef have MSG?

Question

Does the kind of corned beef like you get at a Jewish deli have MSG added?

Answer 1

Imported ones from Brazil like Libby's don't. they pride themselves in that.  ÃƒÂ¯Ã‚¼ÂˆÃ£Â€Â€Ã‚´âˆ€ï½€ï¼‰

Answer 2

Corned beef doesn't contain msg.

As for msg it is known to be one of the causes of cancer in my country.

Answer 3

If it's Kosher, then it most likely does not.  Ask the butcher.

Answer 4

I don't believe so, because in a Jewish Deli I would think that there food would be kosher with no preservative, and MSG (mono sodium glutamate) is for flavor and preservation. I usually see MSG in chips like Doritos, I describe MSG as the last taste in your mouth that makes you want more, its like the perfect saltiness.

Answer 5

All processed meats have msg in it, i just got a letter on bugs they put into our foods from General Mills puts bugs in our food.here ladies read this my friend wendy sent this to me did you know they use beetles bugs thats right in food cereal? linda

Thank you for contacting General Mills regarding carmine used in Breakfast Pack.

>Originated by Consumer Why do you not list all of your ingredients? I do not want my child consuming carmine (beetles used for red color). Do you have carmine in your products? My husband bought trix cereal and lucky charms cereal. We are waiting for your answer before we allow our child to eat these cereals. We do not consume beetles as used for color! try beet juice! Please let us know. Sincerely, Wendy Shepard 016000877009:Trix & Lucky Charms Cereal

Just make sure it's Kosher, and it shouldn't. When in doubt, ask to read the package.
