Hi All,
I was just reading posts from Sep and Oct boards about Maggi Noodles. I love Maggi and cannot down anything besides that sometimes. I have read the label but it doesn't say anywhere that it contains MSG. Can someone please clarify this? Do the Maggi noodles available widely all over US have MSG? I eat the standard \";Masala\"; or \";Tomato\"; flavor. Pls reply as sometimes it is the easiest thing to prepare, my 2 yr old also loves this. SK replied. well...many food products and restaurants today contain MSG in some form or other...it seems MSG has been a hot topic for some years now..but i guess it becomes really hard for them to ban it...
anyway...some amount is ok i feal...but during pregnancy i would say do not eat at all...

SK SK replied. MSG is said to be under research for its effects on pregnancy...i read this...
\";MSG can trigger headaches, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, or sleep disturbances. For this reason, you may want to avoid it during pregnancy. There's no evidence that MSG is harmful to a developing fetus\";

heres the link where u can see maggi contains MSG

( Q3 : What is MSG ?)

maggi packets in US i think do contain MSG...but i think not all contents are mentioned on the pack.( u can look at the content sticker..i feal it just some formality they are doing and putting some main contents and sticking that sticker over there :) )

so it better to aviod then pay for it later...ist'nt it ?

even i had no idea on this beforee...but later i just researched and came to know the above stuff
I don't think thats a concern for your 2 yr old....

hope this helps...

SK
