why exactly is this considered "fancy" mustard?

[Anonymous No.17085144]

some boomer commercial 40 years ago portrayed it as the "classy" mustard and until this day its still seen as pretentious and expensive? it costs like $1 more than heinz yellow mustard wtf

also mustard general. wasabi horseradish etc discussion encouraged

[Anonymous No.17085153]

for me its the country style. i love dipping pretzel sticks in it.

It's Dijon; that's why.

Even cars do this. BMWs are touted as luxury vehicles, but most people who own them are painfully middle-class.

No, you retarded ass dipshit, nobody considers it pretentious or expensive. There are a ton of mustards which cost more, and anyone who isn’t a faggot underage zoomlet and does their own grocery shopping knows this.
Did you really start this fucktarded thread just to complain about boomers?

Unironically black people. It's not bad mustard but they herald it as some ridiculous gourmet shit for some reason.

uh, it's not. but to answer your question that's called marketing. the fact that you think that (inaccurately) means the marketing worked

name some good mustards faggots don't bump this thread just to complain about the thread. contribute something

[Anonymous No.17085877]

Some foods can be considered classy even if they aren't expensive.
You simply don't see some lower class everyman sip wine, eat dark chocolate or choose dijon instead of plain mustard.

we call it fancy mustard because it's not turmeric colored yellow mustard. "fancy" is just a fucking word you autist

this mustard is so good that you'll eat meat just so you'll have an excuse to put it on something

I prefer the harsher stuff generally. Standard yellow mustard is only good on burgers. Pic rel transcends a normal sandwich into an experience. Though it is admittedly harsh so sometimes I bitch out and go with the Boars Head brand which is much sweeter while still keeping a noticeable bite.

Oh and to answer your question, marketing.

Before Grey Poupon, Americans basically only had French's yellow mustard. Then they made a silly TV commercial where a guy in a Rolls pulls up to another and asks if he has any Grey Poupon. In every market where the commercial aired, Grey Poupon sold like crazy. It was the first "specialty" mustard, and following its success there are now countless varieties of mustards on American grocery shelves.

It's not, it's considered cheap and easy like the french, pic related Colman's is the good shit.

[Anonymous No.17089422]

This s&b one is almost as good as Colmans. It's sure less expensive.

[Anonymous No.17089535]

>>17089388
On the contrary, French's yellow totally dominated the American market up to that point.

i like grey poupon on sandwiches. yellow mustard is good for rubbing meat before putting on a spice rub and BBQing
