You MUST(ard) be kidding me!
So this is one of the catalogs that ended up in my mailbox today. Pretty appropriate since I just got back from Vegas.
Like Genevieve (and her Grey Poupon), I am a fan of mustard... but this is a bit over the top. The Mount Horeb Mustard Museum? Mustard Bath & Rub?
Someone's a bit too obsessed with mustard, me thinks.
Also, I think that Poupon U. sounds like something associated more with Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog than with an innocent condiment.
But that's just me.
Nice Pep Rally Chant, though...
Who needs Harvard, who needs Yale?
At POUPON U, you'll never fail!
Stanford, Princeton? Big mistake!
POUPON U's a piece of cake.

The Mount Horeb Mustard Museum curator guy can tell you the world's funniest story about the time he *almost* got onto Late Night with David Letterman. It seems Dave took a bunch of prospective show guests out for lunch, and the mustard man learned Dave liked hot and spicy mustard. He offered a sample of his hottest mustard (I guess he just conveniently brought it along with him?) which just about *killed* poor Dave, ruining his chances for getting on the show that night. Seems it was considerably hotter than anything Dave thought possible... OOOPS!!

Posted by: Vicki at November 24, 2003 06:04 PMA. I can't believe there's a whole museum devoted to a condiment; B. Mount Horeb is "commonly known as The Troll Capital of the World"???
