Does Goya Adobo Have MSG? (Answered)

It is not uncommon for seasonings to have added MSG because it helps provide a savory flavoring while also potentially requiring less added salt in the product. But, do Goya Adobo All-Purpose Seasonings contain added MSG? You will find the answer below!

Goya Adobo & MSG

When a manufacturer adds MSG to its food, it must reveal it on the label ingredients. MSG will appear under its full name as “Monosodium Glutamate” in the ingredients.

As you can see below, Goya produces several Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning products. None of these products contain added Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) in their ingredients.

Be aware that ingredients may change at any time. Be sure to check them before you purchase for the most accurate ingredient information.

Goya makes numerous other products that aren’t all free of added MSG. For example, the most predominant ingredient in Sazón Goya is Monosodium Glutamate (MSG). In short, just because the label reads “Goya” it does not guarantee no added MSG.
