For anyone wondering, if you can get them, these are your ticket to flavor town, especially the driedπΆοΈ pods you can grind yourself

I recognize MSG gets a bad rap, but I still shy away from pouring pure MSG on my food. To get that umami flavor I use some combination of powdered dried mushrooms, miso, soy sauce, fish sauce, or Worcestershire sauce in a marinade. Fiesta seasoning is certainly easy though, it's everywhere here in Texas.
Hey meaning no offense but you personally but do you realize the MSG is bad is an easily traceable to a single source racist myth yes? Googleing turns up a bunch, but this one is pretty concise: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51139005
Not that I'm assuming you are racist of course! The BS about MSG permeates our culture.
They're saying they like to use food based sources of msg rather than the chemical msg to add that flavor. Nothing to do with "msg bad"
Ah ok, fair enough.
Oh for sure, but keep in mind this is in the context of an Old El Paso Extra Mild Taco Kit. Fiesta is a step up from that
Lmao touche
