I checked my target, but no MSG. So I went to the Asian grocery down the street and picked up a bottle.
Ingredient comparison between Costco (left) and Japanese (right):
Haven’t tried them yet together to see if any taste difference.
The US Costco version has sugar (but evidently it rounds to zero grams per serving), the Japanese version does not.

Since the Costco version has water, I am wondering whether the Japanese version is a little thicker. If it’s not thicker, that probably means the Japanese version has more vinegar which might make it a little tangier.
Here is the US non-Costo version

Major taste difference.
Japanese version smells and tastes like eggs. Like deviled eggs. Costco version tastes like a rich mayo, and I would say it’s tangier.
I like both, honestly. I’m intrigued by the Japanese version and will try it in my tuna salad next.

Not a big taste difference in tuna salad. The tuna overpowers it.

Because tuna is disgusting.

A friend at church said lilacs are her favorite, but has none. I learned I can give her a start by cutting a new branch from my lilac tree/bush and sticking it in potting soil.

Do you feel the same way about tuna steaks or sushi?

What about the song “O For Tuna”?
They use the tune in this ad.

Obviously you didn’t add enough mayo or mustard or relish or something else to over power the tuna taste.

I thought that was Ctrl-F4
Based on recent legislation, Connecticut now has a state candy. It is the lollipop. Seems sort of lame to me.
Also a state dog (Siberian Husky) and a state insect (praying mantis).
I was going to make fun of the state dog choice, then remembered about U Conn. Still think it’s dumb, though.

Now that I’m old and cranky I realize how lame a state-anything is .
Yukon Huskie, I think it is brilliant
It took you this long? It was obviously lame to me in elementary school.
Actually, it might have been in my 7th grade “Utah History” class when we had to learn the state gem, flower, etc.
I was one of those fools that thought “school spirit “ was important…through high school.
