That’s what the compound more commonly known to us as MSG or monosodium glutamate was designed to do. It used to be derived from plant sources but economics dictated that it is cheaper to make it in the lab but with the same outcome, a crystalline food enhancer more associated with the Far East that the Western world though many processed food products from that area of the world contains the same.
Hidden under the new name hydrolyzed proteins (another description that can be used for MSG) people argue that it is harmful to ones health but on what basis? No commercial or government studies have ever come up with a result that states it is indeed bad for your health and the very few who do exhibit reactions to the food additive do not suffer long term health issues. The truth is, it may simply be a ploy to discredit the food additive’s ability to make less palatable foods easier to eat and tastier at that.
