MSG brings out that 'savory taste'. it is different from basic 4 tastes.
My mom never used MSG. she always used dried anchovy to make a broth.
I mean there is a way to make natural msg but you can't expect that from $7.99 chinese restaurant.
Plus a lot of people are used to msg flavors. What if the chef cares about the health of customers and just get rid of msg? I bet a lot of people will complain about its mild tastes and never come back.
