      Pour E621 on your food, put your fries into beef fat, and then put even more salt on it.

        I was guessing that E621 was MSG, and I was correct. Monosodium glutamate is great, I keep a shaker of it on my spice rack.

          I’ve heard a claim going around that McDonald’s cheese is formulated to have a distinctive flavor so people will crave McDonald’s cheese specifically. I don’t have any source, so I’d say that’s more of an urban legend than an established fact, but you can find articles like this one that give less sinister sounding reasons for why their cheese has such a distinctive flavor:

            Yeah the blend they used is used by them alone since they own the means of production
