Do you have a different citation? Because what you actually quoted says it is no one, unless you think people are going to Chinese restaurants and being served a plate of pure MSG. Show me one person who has ever eaten instant noodles while maintaining an empty stomach.

My family is Chinese. I love the traditional cooking AND American-style "Chinese" food. I have never had problems with the MSG in these, but I have had headaches after downing too much brewer's yeast and a broth made with a philipinno soup packet one time. Do you know what both of these have in common? It's Glutamate, which is an excitotoxin in excess amounts. Too much of that stuff absolutely will hurt your head.
