More facts about mustard:

• Cooking food with mustard dramatically decreases the condiment’s pungency.

• Yellow mustard (a.k.a. regular mustard) is the most commonly used mustard in the U.S. The rest of the world calls it American mustard. It is a very mild mustard colored bright yellow due to the use of turmeric. It was introduced over 100 years ago in 1904 by George T. French who bet that Americans would prefer milder tasting mustard than what was available at the time.

• French’s website aggressively encourages people to opt for mustard as the condiment of choice because mayonnaise is full of fat, and ketchup is full of sugar.
