It may have came from this excerpt from the NOMSG Summer 1993 newsletter:

Carrageenan: Can have pure MSG added to it or hydrolyzed milk protein, and
then is labeled simply as "carrageenan". This substance on its own has no
protein, and therefore no MSG. It is used for the slimy or smooth feel in
food items.
