Why do food companies use MSG

You might be wondering, why would food companies be using Monosodium Glutamate, MSG, in their products? The answer is plain and simple. Sales and Profits. Think about it. If you owned your own business making a product. A company came to you saying, "If you add our product to yours, it will cause people to become addicted and buy ten times more than they would without adding the product". There is a good chance that you would take them up on their deal. Why wouldn't all these foods companies want the same advantage. They do. That is why MSG is in our food. MSG tricks your body into thinking that what you are currently consuming; is nutritious, it's good for me, and it tastes really good. These feelings are cause by a chemical imbalance in your brain that the MSG triggers. You can literally mix a little dirt, some water, and MSG for a great tasting smoothie.
