释义 | Chinese restaurant syndromenoun dated, sometimes offensive : a group of symptoms held to affect susceptible persons eating food heavily seasoned with monosodium glutamate : msg symptom complex Note: The term Chinese restaurant syndrome was coined in the late 1960s following reports of people having bad reactions to food seasoned with monosodium glutamate in Chinese restaurants. Research in the years since has failed to establish a clear link between those adverse reactions and the consumption of MSG, and the term Chinese restaurant syndrome has been criticized as misleading and potentially offensive. It has been replaced in medical literature by MSG symptom complex. |
