You are better off being about even, otherwise the gubmint gets that money and you get no interest on it. I knew a gal who had credit card bills up the wazoo and she looked forward to her giant refund each year to help pay it down.
She would be so much better getting more money each paycheck and putting it towards the…

My wife had all of the symptoms for quite some time, but her numbers came back "normal" finally she found a doctor willing to try synthroid for her and it seems to have helped. The doctor was worried because her blood pressure was high, but ironically it helped with that and she's off her blood pressure medications. …

She was pretty good in Mystery Men from what I recall.

One time I dreamed I was eating a giant marshmallow and I woke up and my pillow was gone…

See my post in the toilet thread. I should save like $50 a month or so. Yay!

Just learned that Pandora doesn't use data on T-Mobile (Get off my lawn), so I downloaded the app and will be using that all the time now to listen to different genres.

My water bill was $160 last month. I worked out the math and was using 269 gallons a day. Turns out two of the toilets were slowly running even though I couldn't hear it. Spent 20 bucks at the hardware store for two new mechanisms and looking at the water meter it doesn't budge at all. So that should pay for…

Well, when the fuck is it getting to the states for fucks sake?!?!?

Yes. In most people whether they have high blood pressure or not, salt doesn't have a significant affect on their blood pressure despite what the AMA says.

Yeah, sugar alcohols will do this to some people.

One grain more than where it causes no issues.

Yeah, restaurants are one thing. But retail products must be accurately labeled for allergens or they will be recalled.

Guanylates are completely separate. But also give umami flavor.
Disodium Guanylate would be an example.

Excess protein can trigger gout. Protein has naturally occurring glutamate. I'm not sure if it's specifically the glutamate that triggers it, but it's possible.

Where is this? If it's labeled gluten free and it isn't, it needs to be recalled.

Not a very good contrasting opinion though. A few anecdotal cases, but that's about it.
If I can't say "MSG isn't bad for you", then I can't say something like "green beans aren't bad for you" either because somewhere there will be someone allergic to green beans. But it doesn't mean it should be demonized the way it…

Marmite has a ton of naturally occurring MSG in it.

MSG has about a third of the sodium as table salt, and it it's typically used at about a third the level of salt for optimal impact. The headaches could be a result of a number of things. Possible tyramine which is common in fermented things like soy sauce

Sorry, sugar is bad in large quantities =(
The artificial sweeteners on the other hand…
Some evidence they may affect your hunger, but nothing too statistically significant that I've seen.

The beef is always a bit different (it's getting closer though), but with chicken - at least chicken broth - if you aren't familiar with yeast extracts, I can just about guarantee you wouldn't know the difference. A good chunk of commercial chicken broths out there now use different yeast extracts already to kind of…
