We will now attempt to scare you into walking away from the processed food. Why? Well for many reasons, but here is one that is immediately compelling. Thousands of types of processed foods–including many varieties of soups, chips, frozen dinners, hot dogs and salad dressings–may pose a health threat because they contain a flavor enhancer that could be contaminated with salmonella. Manufacturers have voluntarily recalled 56 products, and that number is expected to balloon in the coming weeks into what could be one of the largest food recalls in U.S. history.

Hydrolized Vegetable Protein is just another name for MSG.

The FDA has posted on its Web site a searchable list of products being recalled by manufacturers. It can be found here. The list is up to 153, not 53

Do take care.
