MSG is actually a natural substance and the only reason the FDA investigated it was because people were thinking it was causing headaches. I have eaten food with MSG such as some of those noodle cups from asian stores. I didn't feel any headache. I guess if you eat more than usual then it will have some bad effects on you.

I believe it's safe. The history of concerns about it's effects is mentioned in Wikipedia:

@David: if that symptom was getting a headache then it's most likely the wine.

The only issue with MSG is the S-sodium. One must watch it because you don't get the overloaded salty taste from it, so it can sneak way too much sodium into a diet that is supposed to be lower in sodium.
