    because it's so common and unsophisticated

    Both those quoted clearly lack the elegance, sophistication, variety, and sheer class of mustard. In fact, Mustard is the God of condiments.

    I wonder if that makes Coleman's Mustard the returned Messiah, here to save us from our sinful ketchup-filled ways?

    No, this board was set up in loving memory of the forgotten condiment, which no one buys any more

    Unless some people are making their own then they'd have to be buying it ...

    There's a thread where people tell us where they buy their mustard from.

    Yum, deep fried mars bars.

    You can't beat a nice big trollop of mustard.

    "Colman's" not Coleman's.

    Clear distinction in the lack of an e in the former.
