    Allergy doesn’t mean instant death. I have a pollen allergy but the symptoms are sneezing and itchy eyes. I have a nut allergy but the only symptom is an itchy mouth and throat. I still live even though I’m often enough in contact with the chemicals that make my body go “no”.

    So if MSG allergy was a thing (which it doesn’t seem to be, based on my quick Google search) then it would not cause people to die necessarily.

      I think it makes a difference whether it it is in your lungs temporarily, or constantly interacting with tiny neurons in your brain. I honestly don’t know for sure, though, so take this with a grain of salt.
