"NO MSN" means the restaurant probably uses AOL so the restaurant will not serve MSN users.|||You mean MSG. It's a flavor enhancer that clogs your arteries if you eat it too often and it causes gas. Some onion soup mixes contain MSG so be careful when you purchase them to look for MSG.|||It's no MSG. MSG is an ingredient/preservative in food that some people are very allergic to.|||MSG or Mono-Sodium Glutamate is also called Aji-No-Moto by the Japanese. It is usually used in Far Eastern recipes, especially Chinese, Japanese and Filipino cuisines, as a flavor enhancer. While a small dose- say a pinch- of MSG in food occasionally might not cause any damage to health, the chemical is suspected as causing several serious medical conditions if consumed regularly in large quantities. Some of the medical conditions MSG allegedly causes are Osteoporosis, Leukemia, Brain Tumor and so on...quite serious to scare a majority of consumers- though there are no conclusive medical researches to prove this. But as a precaution and to assure customers, some restaurants announce that they do not use MSG in their food.
If you've seen some restaurant state No MSN...well, possibly they use some other rival brand or have an axe to grind with Bill Gates. Maybe they use a Chinese or Japanese one instead....|||MSG: monosodium glutamate (or ajinomoto)

MSG is a flavor enhancer which has been used effectively for nearly a century to bring out the best flavor of foods. Its principal component is an amino acid called glutamic acid or glutamate. Glutamate is found naturally in protein-containing foods such as meat, vegetables, poultry and milk. The human body also produces glutamate naturally in large amounts. The muscles, brain and other body organs contain about four pounds of glutamate, and human milk is rich in glutamate, compared to cow's milk, for example.|||No "MSG" is a plus for the food. MSG is an effective but dicey flavor enhancer which gives many people, including me, headaches if consumed in quantity. It is also said to have other negative side effects if consumed in quantity. These supposed negative side effects are much disputed and may not really exist, but I know for sure about the headaches.
It used to be found a lot in Chinese restaurants in the US, but is no longer widely used here, thank goodness.|||it seems MSG has a bad rap where it comes to health. most people arent sensitive to it and wont get the headaches associated with heavy intake. those ill effects first gained notoriety as "chinese food syndrome" where a few select people realized chinese food, which can be particularly loaded up with MSG, gave them these headaches. other ill effects have been feared but none have been conclusively linked at all|||Monosodium glutamate :-)|||Are you sure it doesn't say "No MSG"?
MSG stands for monosodium glutamate, and for many years it has been a common food additive, especially in Japanese and Chinese cooking. It also a common additive in many prepared food products in other countries.
MSG has an appearance similar to ground salt, and is used in foods as a flavor enhancer. It is claimed that it enhances food flavour by stimulating certain receptors in the taste buds on a person's tongue.
In the United States MSG has been sold under the trade name "Accent".
The reason that restaurants will specifically state that they do not use MSG is that there has been some controversy over whether it causes health problems in certain individuals.
