There’s no way the “roasted potato” taste of these is natural, but I can’t resist them – I think it’s the MSG – ie “flavour enhancer 621” - Monosodium L-glutamate. No wonder that stuff is so popular everywhere (though often maligned). They’ve used stacks, I reckon. Tasty, yeah...
Following is a quote from mbm.net.au on MSG – in case you were wondering:
Added to any savoury processed protein food. In cigarettes and animal food. In over 10,000 foods in USA. Flavour enhancer derived from the fermentation of molasses, salt substitute; adverse effects appear in some asthmatic people, should not be permitted in foods for infants and young children as it could damage the nervous system. Typical products are canned vegetables, canned tuna, dressings, many frozen foods. To be avoided. It could kill nerve cells, resulting in diseases such as Huntington's, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Pregnant women, children, hypoglycemics, elderly and those with heart disease are at risk from reactions.
Cigarettes! God those things have got everything. And as for “It could kill nerve cells, resulting in diseases such as Huntington's, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's”…
