Those of you who are mustard fans.. might want to know August 3rd
is national mustard day.

The name is said to come from a Roman
mixture of crushed mustard seed and MUST
(unfermented grape juice), which was called
mustum ardens  ("burning wine"). Likewise,
the French word moutarde  ("mustard") comes
from a contraction of their moust  ("must") and
a form of ardent  ("hot" or "fiery").
