> Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein

> Hydrolyzed Protein

> Hydrolyzed Plant Protein

> Plant Protein Extract

> Sodium Caseinate

> Calcium Caseinate

> Yeast Extract

> Textured Protein (Including TVP)

> Autolyzed Yeast

> Hydrolyzed Oat Flour

> Corn Oil

> Food Additives That FREQUENTLY Contain MSG:

> Malt Extract

> Malt Flavoring

> Bouillon

> Broth

> Stock Flavoring

> Natural Flavors/Flavoring

> Natural Beef Or Chicken Flavoring

> Seasoning/Spices

> Food Additives That MAY Contain MSG Or Excitotoxins:

> Carrageenan

> Enzymes

> Soy Protein Concentrate

> Soy Protein Isolate

> Whey Protein Concentrate
