What type of foods is MSG not present ?

Interesting Exerpt from site:

"Certain That MSG is not just used in East Asian restaurants, but in most restaurants and most bagged, bottled, frozen, boxed, canned, or commercially prepared foods? "

"That the billion dollar processed food industry and MSG producers pay lobbyists to make all of us believe MSG is safe for the majority of the population?"

Big conspiracy?

Discuss
MSG is only harmful to your health if you're susceptible to fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome and intense spiritual experiences involving contact with angels.

Thankfully, things such as magnetic therapy, acupuncture and crystal therapy can quickly provide an imaginary fix for your imaginary health problems.

And now, seriously: no adverse health effects have been proven, and the countries with the highest msg intake worldwide are also the countries with the highest life expectancy worldwide. There is a small chance of people being allergic to it, though.
