ok guys and gals, what was your first ever mustard experience?

mine was in my next door neighbours house (they always were classier than us) and my friends mam made me a ham sandwich. she asked me did i want mustard and not wanting to be impolite, i said yes.....and thus my love affair with mustard began! it was such an amazing taste....like a party in my mouth!

**ecksor** · 24-05-2004, 11:57

I started putting the english stuff on my ham after watching my grandfather have it with any cold meats and saladas as a child. Took me a while to get to like the taste of it I must admit!

**Agent Smith** · 24-05-2004, 12:05

ok.... this is getting warped.....

mine was when i was about 6/7 watched my dad put it on a burger, tried it, then threw up....

my first ever memorable mustard experience, the one that changed my life forever and which made me look at mustard in a whole new light was when I went to visit my sister in france and she produced a jar of Dijon to compliment the meal she was serving us, sex for your taste buds, I was never the same person again

***BuffyBot*** · 24-05-2004, 12:59

Again with the plain white bread (heel of the loaf) and plain mustard on it.

I was a strange child!

buttered white bread, slices of white cheddar and colman's mustard.

That's what I insisted on having for lunch for an extensive period of Junior infants and 1st class, with brief forays into bread and ketchup sandwiches.

Haven't had one in a while.

Exact same thing happened to me..

At Christmas, my grand parents would always come out to the house for dinner
either on christmas day or stephens day and the usual condiments would be laid
out on the table and then this little yellow jar of mustard..

Always caught my eye but never tried it.. until one day my grandfather was having
a ham sandwich later that evening and the mustard was put on it, i advertantly
picked it up, bit into it and got this really weird tingling sensation on my tongue..
Loved the taste and the rest is history...

Have to say that the Dijon and irish whisky whole grain mustard are my favs tho..

my first experience of mustard was when i was about 8 or 9 and my mother used to have a jar of Colemans Mustard as a way of making me behave. if i did something wrong then i would be force fed mustard. put me off the stuff for many a year but i have since rekindled my love affair with the lovely mustard

I remeber doing the shopping when i was about 4 and really liked the bottle (y'knwo the sqeezy yellow french mustard bottles prolly dunnes stores best imitation) and persuaded my dad to buy it for me.........bet he didnt count on me having it gone 15 mins later ............................................STRAIGHT !!

Although i'v kinda become partial to the hotter stuff in recent years, guess taste in mustard must mature like a taste in women (with mustard

).

**BEAT** · 25-05-2004, 19:22

my first time...
well I was about 5 or 6 and I remember my mom giving me a hotdog with mustard on it, I didnt like the smell of it but she made me try it and when i spit it out I discovered the first food or condiment I had ever not liked and it was mustard...ever since I cant stand the stuff.

I have been given burgers with the stuff on it since and I cant even eat it after wiping the stuff off, I have to throw the whole burger away because it has been ruined by the big bad "mustard".

*Sarky* · 25-05-2004, 19:54

I saw a strange jar in the cupboard when over at my aunts and they were making prawn cocktails or something. I wondered what it tasted like, so I opened it, dipped in a finger, and bit the bullet, as it were.

I'd never before experienced my eyeballs perspiring.

I was hooked soon after...

I had a hotdog in america when I was 13 (late developper) at a baseball match and the guy said do you want mustard and I couldnt say no cos there was always this yellow crap on them in the ads so I said yes i will and then i ate it and it was nice and then i started using mustard regularly and mayonaisse and even gherkins and things like that. And pickle.
