I had a friend that would tell people he felt funny after eating Chinese food because it may contain MSG. I offered him some Doritos at a BBQ and he ate it without any symptoms. Doritos contain the most MSG of any prepared food. The people that make Doritos also did this experiment with over 1000 people. Giving them many sorts of food including Doritos which few people reported ill effects, and reporting that they felt symptoms after eating foods that had no MSG.
