Madison Square Garden?

That place will definitely give you a hangover.

True.

MSG hangover = "I ate too much food and I feel bad."

Were some scientific studies on this. In a blind study, MSG had no effect on how eaters felt afterwards when all other variables were held constant. However, when allowed to eat freely, participants consistently ate more of the MSG flavored food (because it tastes better), and then had more reported negative side effects.


I had an argument with my research adviser about this once. Had to produce the paper before he'd believe me, he was sure he had an MSG allergy

Kind of like people who claim to be allergic to sulfites in wine. Proven bullshit in most cases.

Yeah, MSG allergies are bunk. You might feel like shit after eating a bunch of it, but that's probably because you just ate a bunch of fried, sugar coated (and delicious) Chinese food, not because of the MSG.

Most food allergies are bullshit. And don't get me started on fibromyalgia...

lol

Someone told me the weekend before last that since she has gone gluten free her fibromyalgia is in remission. I wish I was making this up but I'm not.

I respectfully disagree in my case.
I have no trouble saying I ate a whole lot but I don't feel like I've got a migraine after eating at the Brazilian steakhouse that i usually binge at.
After eating a lot I do "feel bad" from over eating but this is different. I have a throbbing headache and feel sick overall.
This was my fist time at Korean BBQ. God do I regret it.
Fuck that life.

Bullshit on top of bullshit.

dammit, I got suckered into posting a lot again.

...Korean BBQ is not Brazilian Steakhouse? Am I missing something here?

MSG is basically salt. so the headaches are most likely from dehydration. headaches induced by dehydration suuuuck. the most likely cause of hang over headaches is dehydration.

there are some pretty serious food allergies, just like there are anaphylactic reactions to medications, but whats bullshit is how large populations are slaves to the minority. Like when they won't serve peanuts on an airplane because one person claims to have a peanut allergy. there isn't airborne aerosolized penaut dust being emitted from the packages upon opening, and odds are that the previous crew/flight served peanuts on the same plane.
