#2746 mustard

This is part of an actual conversation I had at the office this week.

Me: I am sort of craving chicken Mcnuggets. 

W: Huh. Like from McDonalds?

Me: Yes.

W: Do you want the sauce or the McNuggets?

Me: Yes. I want both things.

M: What is your go-to sauce?

Me: Hot mustard.

M: They have hot mustard sauce?!?

Me: Oh yeah. It's the best. 

M and W groan appreciatively.

Me: Do you all have multiple mustards in your fridge?

M and W, simultaneously: YES!

Me: Me too! I like to keep a Dijon, a spicy brown, and usually just a regular yellow on hand.

M: I'm a fan of a stone ground, too. Sometimes I get one with horseradish. 

W: I have Dijon and regular all the time. Spicy brown sounds intriguing.

M: Do you put mustard on a grilled cheese sandwich? 

Me: YES!

W: What?

M and I explain the magic of mustard with grilled cheese to W, who agrees to try it out.

Me: I also like a sweet and spicy mustard on a grilled ham and cheese.

M: Oh snap! That's next level!

The three of us pause to ponder the wonders of mustard, then get back to work.

The end.

PS - I did have the Mcnuggets with hot mustard, and they were just what I wanted.
