A California-based company is recalling 55,757 pounds of pork dumpling products because they contain monosodium glutamate (MSG), but this ingredient is not listed on packaging. CB Foods, Inc. of Monte, CA issued a voluntary [recall](http://www.fsis.usda.gov/Fsis%5FRecalls/RNR%5F039%5F2012/index.asp?ref=foodsafetynews.com) of the pork dumplings after a food safety assessment by USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service revealed that the chicken powder used in the product is made with MSG, but that only the powder and not the MSG were listed on its label.
