Re: IT Cameroon Legend - Sucking on a salt mine!?

The Asian dish may have had monosodium glutamate? The shrimp likely had sodium tripolyphosphate which was probably listed as a moisture retention agent. Actually, STP (as it is called in the industry) makes the shrimp suck up water like a sponge. This adds weight........I guess I don't have to tell you the rest of the story.

BTW, there is a good chance that the chicken had been pumped with a fairly substantial amount of salt water solution.
