I don't think it would be possible to avoid it altogether, but I'm pretty scrupulous about it as an additive. In its naturally-occurring form (as a product of fermentation), it makes life worth living, so I dole it out.
Once while traveling in France I had a picnic meal featuring salami, red wine, and blue cheese. I could barely breathe afterwards! So I'm careful about piling on the umami.
