My lateness [...]

~22~ i don’t care about msg in my food

I don’t care about MSG in my food. In fact, I kind of like it. I know it’s a health concern — the AARP suggests it causes, “…tightness in the chest, and a burning sensation in the back of the neck and arms” — but I mean, it’s basically been in everything I’ve eaten since [...]
