> Some people are convinced that MSG isn’t a problem

To be clear on this: Science is 100% convinced MSG is _NOT_ a problem. Your statement should read that “In spite of all the scientific and medical evidence to the contrary, some people still think it’s a problem.,…”

We’re trying to fight ignorance here.
