If you're feeling flush you can buy Accent. For a lot less cabbage you
can purchase MSG on line from various venders, including Penzeys. Or
check your neighborhood ethnic markets, they typically carry no-name
MSG in one or two pound bulk plastic containers for even less cash and
no shipping... look in the bulk spice section.
