Another thought for you, Carol. I never realized or thought about dried dill having a shelf life so I'm embarassed to say how old mine might have been but regardless, it never turns out to be bland.....so, did you try the Lawry's seasoned salt (the red stuff) in place of the msg? Can't say for sure but that might have made a difference, too.
