They could give away their soup for free, I would not touch it. I'd rather find me some junkfood without MSG.
There is a brand of instant noodles that I occasionally buy from Central Supermarket (I think it is Coca, in reddish packaging)...it's MSG free and no trans fat.
This is not correct, Coca Noodles also contain MSG. But there is one brand available TOPS, which has no MSG added. The Name of the brand is Moroheija Noodles and was available two styles: Tomyum Vegetarian and Shiitake Vegetarian.
I doubled checked the spelling...it is Koka; label clearly says NO MSG and it is also not present on ingredient list.
We both are right, I checked their website and found your MSG-free Koka noodles. But I did see this pack at TOPS: http://www.spicesofi...en-Flavour.html Check it out.
I hope I will find the non MSG-Koka brand one day at our Tops.

The beer here tastes like 'kee', adding ice to dilute the bad taste is a good thing.
In most of the cases you are absolutely right. But there is a reason that beer tastes not good at all in Thailand. The main reason is, that beer is not stored properly. After the filling of the bottle the beer has to be stored in between 8 and 12 degrees centigrade, and Thais do not know. They do not give a hoot, beer in Thailand is being sold to get pissed, and not to enjoy. Down here in Hat Yai in most cases you can buy beer, which is around one to four months of age and has been sitting on a shelf in a supermarket or even been stored in a non-cooled warehouse for a month or so. These beers are DEAD. If you are in Bangkok you might be more lucky: Try to get a freshly brewed Singha (the big bottle, filling date on the back) and compare it with a bottle which has been exposed to high temperatures and/or is two month old. The fresh Singha beer is still sweet, tasty and comes with nice bubbles, whilst the old or warm stored bottle has a bitter and a little sour taste. Also beware of beers that have been frozen. In most cases you find them on the bottom of these cooling closets. This beer is dead too. And when you finally find a good fresh beer, you do not want ice in there.
Due to the amount of preservatives Heineken is not that sensitive as beer Singh, but for me Heineken is just an ordinary commodity rather than a good beer. I can not tell you about Chang, as I tried it once and never again. To make a long story short:
It is always worthwhile to check the filling date of the beer before buying a bottle. Do not buy older than two weeks.
And do not ask questions about the age, storage of the beer: Khun Thai mei ruu!
