What is MSG or vetsin or AJI-NO-

MOTO® Umami Seasoning?

The name AJI-NO-MOTO® means “essence of taste” and was first sold
under that name in 1909. The sales for the product grew over the course of
the next decades, becoming one of the most popular types of seasoning
used in food. Today, Ajinomoto Vetsin remains as one of the most
commonly used forms of seasoning, adding a great flavor to millions of
dishes worldwide.
This success has helped Ajinomoto become a recognized name outside of
Japan, gaining popularity while also becoming one of the largest food
companies in the world. Today, the annual global demand for MSG has
recently reached a volume of over 3.2 million tons, making it one of the
most in-demand ingredients across the world.

This has also led the company to explore new ventures in the food industry,
expanding its range of products to provide more flavor and ways to make
classic recipes even better.
