Does glutamate contain wheat or flour?

No, glutamate does not contain wheat or flour. Glutamate is an amino acid commonly found in protein-rich foods and is often used as a flavor enhancer in the form of monosodium glutamate (MSG). It is derived from fermentation processes of sugars or starches, not from wheat or flour. However, some processed foods containing glutamate may also include wheat or flour as ingredients, so it's important to check labels for those specific products.
