I know where there is one Latin market near me so I'll try that out. There was a grocer here known as Giant Food that used to sell Orale spices in bags with a card board top and I'm certain that the Orale line would have had Annatto in it. But alas, they don't carry those spices anymore.
Wow MSG is in a lot of things. I really only have trouble with it in large amounts like at Chinese restaurants, and the older Zatarain's. Zatarain's now uses something called Disodium Guanylate, which is the product MSG is produced from, so it has MSG but less then pure MSG would have. I still steer clear of it though.
I think another name for MSG is Autolyzed Yeast Extract.
