There are some things you wouldn't want even if they were given away free, aren't there? In no particular order, for me, these would include skimmed milk (aka greyish water), margarine (aka factory-produced slime pretending to be food), GM products, artificial sweeteners, cornflakes, Marmite, caviar, anchovies, Subway sandwiches, mulled wine (best poured down the sink, imo), Coke (aka toilet cleaner), Diet Coke and MSG (monosodium glutamate).

MSG (monoSODIUM glutamate)is another high-sodium compound to avoid if you are overweight.
Common salt, sodium chloride, is the most common high sodium additive to avoid if you are overweight, because it increases fluid retention, but MSG (monoSODIUM glutamate) is another high-sodium additive you would do well to avoid if you are overweight.
Read here about how to lose weight by eating less salt/sodium.
See Sodium in foods
And here is some further MSG information: Dr Mercola's article about MSG.
