"Natural flavors" means what? MSG?

I emailed the company. Reply: "Our natural flavors are plant based, which means that we use a combination of herbs, fruits, vegetables, and essences. Sweet Drops™ contain no MSG or other products like it. Our liquids are also vegan and gluten free, meaning they contain no corn, wheat, barley or rye. We do not use GMO products."

You could ask the company what their natural flavors are, but Sweet Leaf doesn't use MSG. The Sweet Leaf website claims: SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener employs proprietary technology that uses only cool, purified water to extract a select blend of glycosides from high-quality stevia leaves. SweetLeaf is the only stevia-based sweetener company in the world to use this process. SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener does not use chemicals, alcohols, solvents or enzymes at any stage of the extraction and purification process. I love this brand of stevia and trust that it's ingredients are healthy and pure.

Natural flavors are nearly always additives that we are not supposed to ask what they are, otherwise they would list them.

Natural flavors mean there are no artificial flavors added. There is no MSG in sweet drops stevia.

msg? don't think so. not my specialty, but i have an allergic reaction when i eat somewhere that uses too much msg, and i drink this stuff in large quantities on a daily basis for years now. i couldn't do it if it had msg. i think they mean vanilla, or cinnamon, or whatever flavor it happens to be. but i'm only a customer. i have the same information available that you have. perhaps you should contact them if you're concerned.

Assuming you mean the "natural flavors" listed under in the "Other Ingredients" list, I'm not sure what they are. In my research, I saw that they used turmeric and cinnamon in the mix, but I could not find if they meant they added other natural flavors or if they are listing it like that because the fruit they use to make the mix has natural flavors in it. They do list that this mix is all natural, no yeast, corn, wheat, soy, dairy, egg, MSG, preservatives, artificial color or artificial flavor. I have been using this product for over a year and I can tell you it has made a tremendous difference for me.

No. There's no MSG. The ingredients are: Water, Wheat Flour, Soybean, Salt, and Malt. Like Hyesu Joh mentioned it's not super salty, unless you over use it.

Does Almond Breeze® contain MSG?The following is according to almondbreeze.com: "The ingredient MSG (monosodium glutamate) is not added to Almond Breeze or present in any of the ingredients including flavors."

Hello, the "natural flavor" found on our label is actually a mistake from our label designer. We DO NOT have any natural flavors in our stevia liquid. The ingredients should read "Water, stevia, Vit. C, potassium Sorbate (freshness)". We apologize for this isprint and are revising our labels to reflect this. Unfortunately, it takes a while for this process. Thank you for your question and let us know if we can answer anything else. Thanks, Diana-Stevia Select

I do not know their reasoning. MSG is supposed to make things taste better, but it ruins them for a lot of people. It triggers all kinds of symptoms and makes the product unusable for them. It might help to directly address the problem to Kraft and express your opinion.

Yes it contains MSG, pork rinds, maltodextrin, salt and less than 2% of natural flavorings. :)

The label states that there is no MSG added, but has naturally occurring glutamates

There is no way to be sure. I suppose it could be something natural but if it were, why not just tell us. How can "natural flavor" be an ingredient? Deceptive labeling is a growing issue due to looser labeling laws. I have found that "natural flavor" is often something unnatural that was created from something natural. For example, proteins that have been "hydrolyzed" (chemically disassembled) in order to excite specific taste cells. Unfortunately certain amino acids, when concentrated in free form, are capable of harming neurons (in our most vital organs). Same problem as Aspartame and MSG. These "excitotoxins" are often derived from natural sources. An sneaky way to add even more unhealthy flavor compounds while keeping a clean label (and company image).

Inulin soluble fiber, USDA certified organic SweetLeaf Stevia Extract. Listed under ingredients on my box. Nothing in SweetLeaf like MSG. I've been using it for two plus years and love it. I also buy the liquid flavors too.

It is described on the ingredients list of the bottle I purchased as "Natural cherry flavor with other natural flavors".

I looked at my bottle of Chipotle Salad Dressing and saw no MSG listed in the ingredients. I don't recall seeing MSG in other of their products either.

I would interpret natural to mean that it is not synthetic or chemically comprised. This whey powder is both natural and unflavored(i.e.no sugar, no additional flavoring)

Is your concern soy or soy sauce, or an ingredient in soy sauce? MSG is always in soy sauce and yeast extract, if that is your concern. (ref: http://www.truthinlabeling.org/hiddensources.html)
