Used the rub on chicken. It was very good. Served with Mac and cheese last night, then today we used the leftovers in a Caesar Salad at lunch."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

MSG is not bad for you.

MSG is delicious, IMO. But people with celiac disease should avoid it. And those that are on limited sodium intake, well, it contains sodium.

Thank you for the information.
I live in a home where MSG is not wanted by the majority of my family. This rub is what I put together to meet their needs.
If you only knew the narrow scope of food I can fix, and how I must prepare it, to get My Beautiful Wife and our children to eat, you would be amazed.
For me, personally, I think, if the sugar and salt, already a part of this rub, does not kill you, then why worry about MSG?
That is just me.
My tastes are much more liberal. Look at my old, fat, body, you will know, I do not push back much which is put on my plate.
I do, however, like knowing, exactly, what I put on my food.
Unfortunately, most labels, are not so forthcoming on the information of the ingredients contained in the rubs I had previously purchased, for our use.
So, there is that; a rationalization, to provide solace for me.
I quit trying to figure that stuff out, years ago.
I learned matrimonial bliss is ensured with two words; "Yes, Dear." I use that term, just like this rub; liberally and enthusiastically, as needed.
That is the healthiest decision I have ever made.
FWIW: I, too, could write an argument against, or on behalf, of just about any any issue, in a convincing manner, citing opinions of others.
That is why I stated previously, "Research MSG, make your own decisions."
@Toxarch, you have done so. I was pleased to see the references provided as proof of your opinion. Congrats."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

I've been doing my own rubs for years. My main one is similar to yours but no turbinado sure, just the brown sugar and I use onion flakes instead of the onion powder.Marshall in Beautiful Fruit Cove, FL.

Ron, I'm guessing your house is a Clamato-free zone.
