Anyone adding this to their homemade sausages?

I haven't used it in my home made sausage, but I do use it on my home made rub for my tri-tip recipe.  Is there something I should know about that I don't?  Thanks.  John

Nothing to know. I was just curious if it made that much of a difference in taste.

Some people can be very sensitive to it and have something like an allergic reaction.  Fever spike, burning neck pain, dizziness.  Chinese restaurants have been notorious for it.

one way to see how big a difference it makes is to do a side by side comparison and yeah some people are allergic to it...same with sulfites in wines some people dont tolerate them...
MSG is sort of like salt on steroids....

Powdered milk is often used as a binder, but I prefer soy protien if I am using a binder. It can help in moisture retention.

No reason to add it if you're a good chef.
