(Food-Beverage-News.Com, September 19, 2015 ) Auckland, North Island -- MSG (monosodium glutamate) is a commonly used flavor enhancer. It is found in many different foods as it's considered a cheap and easy way to improve taste without using naturalpremium quality ingredients. Despite being classified "generally recognized as safe" by the FDA, the use of MSG is controversial and many people have serious adverse reactions to this additive. Indian spice mixes and sauces frequently use MSG rather than natural, pure ingredients as a cost-cutting mechanism. However, New Zealand based company Leena Spices is rebelling against the mainstream Indian spice producers with their premium quality natural spice blends. All their products, including their highly popular Tandoori Masala powdered spice mix, are free of MSG and other unwanted additives.
In an interview with Leena Spices CEO and founder Irani, she explained why it is so important not to use MSG in their products: "There are so many negative side effects people can experience from MSG. Some of these include headaches, sweating, flushing, nausea, numbness, heart palpitations, chest pain, weakness, facial pressure or tightness; these allergic reactions can be serious! We don't believe in cutting corners to create flavorsome natural spice blends. We rely on our traditional knowledge of premium quality spices and only use the best hand-picked ingredients so that you are guaranteed quality without any nasty hidden additives."
In addition to being free of MSG, Leena Spices Tandoori Masala powdered spice mix doesn't contain salt, nuts, fat, artificial color, or GMO derived ingredients. It is a 100% pure blend that's full of natural flavor. In this spice blend is a special combination of Coriander, Cinnamon, Cloves, Cumin, Cayenne Pepper, Paprika, Garlic, Ginger, and Mint for full, authentic Indian seasoning. Anyone interested in Tandoori Masala powdered spice mix or any other Leena Spices blend can find these products featuring on Amazon.com.
