Do Our Spices Have Msg? Thanks!

In summary, there is no MSG in our spices and they are safe for those with allergies. However, the salt does contain iodine which can be harmful to those with shellfish allergies. It is important to be cautious when using our salt and to inform others with allergies to be careful. Some individuals may still be able to use the salt despite their shellfish allergy, but it is important to test for any reactions. Additionally, some vitamins may also contain iodine from shellfish, so it is important to check labels and be aware of potential allergens in our products.

Re: Spices-MSGBut, guess what they do have IODINE, which I am allergic to.... So be sure to tell people that are allergic to shell fish, NO on our salt.

Yes, I called HO and verified this.
 
Re: Spices-MSGOh Man. I am allergic to shellfish!!
 
Re: Spices-MSGOk. So I'm confussed. Is the salt dangerous to those with allergies or the spices or both? I have a friend in my hospitality group that has very bad severe allergies to shell fish.

I don't know. I am allergic to Iodine. So I am very careful. I know that if you are allergic to Iodine, you are usually allergic to shell fish and vise versa. I would think she needs to be careful.
 
Re: Spices-MSGI can use Iodized salt and take vitamins with Iodine with no problem. But if I eat shellfish....or in some cases anything that has come in contact with shellfish (possibly in same batter)....I break out like crazy.

I am going to try the salt and if I don't itch, I know it doesn't affect me.

Re: Spices-MSGI sent her an email just as a heads up to warn her to check it out. She is very very allergic to shell fish and has mentioned that if she's even around it she could die. Thanks for the info.

I am allergic to some shell fish. Just the main 3 crab, shrimp and lobster (i don't like lobster anyhow) I carry a EpiPen just in case. But I'm not allergic to iodine. I can use iodized salt.
