Instant Noodles and The Most Popular Brand

Indomie still exist from time to time. This is the most popular brand of instant noodle in Indonesia. Everybody in Indonesia like this food. Indomie has various taste which almost everybody like that taste. For instance, chicken curry, special chicken curry, satay, and many more. But we have to think of the danger of consuming instant noodle. 
Firstly, we talk about MSG 
(Monosodium Glutamate). MSG is a food additive, popularly marketed as a "flavour enhancer". If we consuming this additive, we get an extra flavour that we can enjoy the food better. If we consuming over of MSG, maybe we can get a symptom likes headache, rapid heartbeat, chest pain, 
drowsiness, bronchospasm (difficulty breathing), and many others. We know as a human we like a delicious food. But maybe we didn't know the dangerous of food which we had already consumed. Secondly, we talk about the quality of noodle. We know that the competition for instant noodles in Indonesia is very tight, and the government has proclaimed about instant noodle is the alternative food as rice.
Because of the competition of selling the various brands, the company must reduce their price and if the price become reduce, logically the quality of food become decrease too. So it is dangerous for our health and our body. Finally, there is no recommendation to consume noodle frequently. This is not the prohibition to consume noodle, but it could 
be better if we consume the noodle for infrequently.
