Amplifies savory flavors amazingly
This bag is well worth the money! The product is high quality, and I like how they give suggested seasoning amounts on the bag (it is very important not to over season). This stuff works great with a huge variety of savory foods (I would recommend using it on meats primarily, but you can use it on whatever you imagine - but I do think sweet, bitter, and sour would probably be an odd pairing) Also, this bag will last me a very long time. Be ready for MSG to take your taste buds to the max! (Also - MSG occurs naturally in a large variety of foods, so I think that is something to take into consideration if you are on the fence)… highly recommend👍

Savory Boost for Every Meal at a Great Price
This 16oz Ajinomoto Umami Seasoning has become a must-have in my kitchen. I have been using it regularly for months and the bag still is not close to empty. Just a small sprinkle gives a big flavor boost. It adds that perfect savory umami taste to soups, stir-fries, vegetables, and meats, making everything more delicious without being overwhelming. The price is very affordable for the generous amount you get and the packaging is well designed. The bag has a secure seal that keeps the seasoning fresh and easy to store between uses. I also appreciate that the package includes simple instructions to guide how much to add for different foods. It is important to note that this is pure monosodium glutamate, so it does contain sodium. Used in moderation, it is safe and effective for enhancing flavor and I have found it a healthier alternative to relying on heavy salt. I would absolutely purchase this brand again. It is a great value, lasts a long time, and consistently elevates my cooking.

MSG deniers don't know
the best! it's a flavor enhancer, not some toxic chemical like some people think. "I can't have MSG!" Guess what, MSG (monosodium glutamate) is found in: Aged Cheeses, Parmesan, Roquefort, Gouda, Tomatoes, Tomato Paste, Mushrooms, Broccoli, Peas, Corn, Cured Ham, Anchovies, Scallops, Shrimp, Seaweed, Kombu, Doritos, Flavored Potato Chips, Cheetos, Instant Ramen, Cup-o-Noodles, Frozen Dinners, Taco Seasoning, Bouillon Cubes, Ranch Dressing, BBQ Sauce, Soy Sauce, Fish Sauce, Ketchup, Beef Jerky, Pepperoni, Sausage, Deli Meats, Yeast Extract, Autolyzed Yeast, Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein, Sodium Caseinate, Soy Protein Isolate, Gelatin, Maltodextrin, etc it's not harmful to 99% of people and enhances that savory flavor people love. use it, it's a big bag, and great value!

Tasty addition
I'm new to using msg, and I really liked this brand. You don't have to use much, and it really adds to the flavor. It was a good price, and the amount should last quite awhile. It was sealed up well, and I just poured it into an airtight container.

Love this XTRA large bag of MSG
Love this XTRA large bag of MSG - I use it on most everthing I cook and I cook A LOT! Brings out all the flavors that you have put in your cooks. Seriously way less expensive than commercial brand ~Accent. Quality is good, easy to use and clean appearance.
