Although MSG has known unpleasant effects, I would surely not call it
"poison".

MSG is a sodium salt of glutamic acid. Other than being somewhat less
acid, maybe a little alkaline, and having some sodium, it's essentiallylly
glutamic acid, one of the amino acids in many proteins.
It is one of the more prevalent amino acids in brewer's yeast. If you
have a problem with MSG, then you should not consume much brewer's yeast.
