Is there dope in massivore?

[Red Devil]

i wish it was removed from the foods we eat...it is really hard to find any type of fast food or packaged food that does not have it... it is also known as artificial flavorings... it really does a number on me if i have eaten anything that contains it for dinner.. hours later i will be laying in bed buzzing in my brain... your tired but no sleep will come.. same way for my husband.. i think it really effects you more as you age...ps thanks for info..

Actually, it's well hidden in a lot of our foods under the name "natural flavor." These flavorings are not "natural" but instead increase the natural flavor of things such as beef or chicken. Scary how many things have this masked toxin in it!

Yeah, sorry for saying like that! It's scary the stuff they put in our food, and get away with practically LYING about what it is.

I hate to say it too but Massivore is the only pellet food my fishes will eat. I have tried literally every other types brands, style, industrial fish foods, name brand fish foods, I have ended up wasting hundreds of dollars to try to train them or get them on a more affordable staple other than Hikari Massivore. I tried that because I am sick of paying top dollar for massivore and I go through a 2.2 pound bag every 2-3 weeks. But with no sucess. I am a slave to my fishes and they demand Massivore. Well I guess if I want to keep thousands of dollars worth of fishes, I guess I can fork up the cash to feed them the most expensive best fish food.

I just checked my bag and it's not in there anymore. Seems like they listened to their customers!

MSG can also be called 'yeast extract', yeast product' and way more outlandish things. Besides 'artificial flavor' and 'other ingredients'.


I don't know much about these pages, but it's something to investigate!

MSG is the shiz, I don't eat much fast/processed food (expensive, and I like to play in the kitchen as much as I like my fish), but I keep some MSG in the pantry, add some to homemade bean and bacon soup, or greens and there is not a curse word joyous enough for the effect.
Pity so many folks say they have a sensitivity...maybe the two pots of coffee I drink a day, and a misspent youth have made me used to going to bed buzzy.

Starve your fish they will eat what you are trying to feed after awhile

You will have a difficult time finding any food that does not have MSG. Glutamate is a naturally occurring amino acid found in nearly all foods, especially high protein foods (dairy products, meat and fish and many vegetables). Most foods used for flavoring (mushrooms, tomatoes, etc.) have high levels of naturally occurring glutamate. Most of those MSG studies take results of ingesting only MSG--without food.
Just like the aspartame studies. If you ingest 10lbs. of aspartame per day, you might get cancer.
