Ya, people think, people like, people would... what does this have to do with actual health claims?
I am a Chinese food fan, myself, preferring good Chinese cuisine to French
-- but the almost ubiquitous corn starch, sugar, and the very common MSG ("mei jing" -- flavor enhancer, I believe) are hardly healthly ingredients.
But so what? We don't eat solely for health, anyway.
