Umami Burger Comes to New York, Armed With One Addictive Ingredient — Grub Street New York

The word umami was first popularized in the early 1900s by a Tokyo scientist named Kikunae Ikeda, who invented the term (the very loose translation in Japanese is “deliciousness”) to describe the flavor-enhancing properties of glutamic acid, essentially known as MSG. The “fifth” taste (the other four being sweet, sour, salty, and bitter), as its believers call it, and I am one of them, is the tangy, faintly acidic, deeply addictive flavor that you feel in the back of your mouth when you eat a whole range of foods like gently cooked tomatoes, or anchovies, or a crunchy, caramelized, well-seared piece of beef.

Plagiarism can be avoided by providing attribution and giving credit, copyright infringement can not.
