Shirley J Shelf-Stable Food Products
Many people ask whether or not Shirley J products contain MSG.
The short answer is No! but we thought we would do more digging for you.
Hydrolyzed Soy Protein is not MSG, but contains some of the similar properties, namely the common amino acids found in proteins. As you know, when the chemical details of food are analyzed, MSG occurs naturally in many different foods. The key is whether or not there additional MSG is added.
MSG (Mono-Sodium Glutamate) is the sodium salt of glutamic acid. Glutamic acid is an amino acid, one of the building blocks of protein. It is found in virtually all food and, in an abundance, in food that is high in protein, including meat, poultry, cheeses, and fish. Hydrolyzed proteins, used by the food industry to enhance flavor, are simply proteins that have been chemically broken apart into amino acids. The chemical breakdown of proteins may result in the formation of free glutamate that joins with free sodium to form MSG. In this case, the presence of MSG does not need to be disclosed on labeling. Labeling is required when MSG is added as a direct ingredient.
Shirley J is proud to say that they have no added MSG in any of their products.

This sauce is literally fool-proof every time you make it. JUST ADD WATER, a little heat and some stirring. And you've got the perfect silky white-sauce base for thousands and thousands of recipes. Make a thicker consistency to substitute sour cream in recipes. Or make it lighter for a creamy dressing instead.

Instead we add the Shirley J's chicken or beef bullion, freeze-dried mushrooms, celery, or broccoli. The best part is that this sauce base eliminates the trans fats, saturated fats, hydrogenated oils, and MSG from our diets. Did we mention that it's DELICIOUS?!

Not only will you save a small fortune making this yourself, but you'll be rewarded with a healthy, easy alternative as well.
