From my files:

Carrageenan is a wholly natural, GRAS(generally  recognized as safe)
ingredient obtained fromcertain species of the red seaweed farmed
abundantly in the Philippines.It is the world's most widely used seaweed
product today.>what is carreegan?

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.
