Located right here in Middleton, Wisconsin, the National Mustard Museum boasts of having more than 5,000 mustards from all 50 states and 70 countries in its collection. It is worth a visit especially if you are looking for something for free. And it is located right next door to the Hubbard Ave. Diner, a good place for some homemade food.
You are welcome to join the National Mustard Day festivities at the museum from 10 am to 4 pm on Sat., August 3, 2013. Games, mustard tasting, and Culver's Frozen Mustard Custard are part of the event.

I went to Madison to meet the Chung family. Way back about 1980, I had the honor of baptizing Francis. We have not seen each other for 21 years. He and I are pictured with his wife, Peggy, and their daughter, Renee. Their 16 yr. old son, Bartholomew, took the picture. |

You're sure to recognize this brand of mustard here in the States. |

Black, yellow, and brown mustard seeds are grown in various parts of the world (mostly in Canada). |

There are more kinds of containers that you'd ever guess. |

Believe it or not, these are all mustards from Wisconsin. |

I thought that you'd enjoy seeing me take the picture (check the reflection). |

Francis, Peggy, Renee, and Bartholomew watch the informative video. |

A whole section of the store area is devoted to objects from Poupon U. Wouldn't you like to be a graduate of Poupon U.? |

And finally, a tribute to the reference to mustard in Holy Scripture. The second quote is a reference to the Book of II Condiment 7:12-13 (obviously a spoof). |
Interesting, I wonder if there is a ketchup museum here in Pittsburgh.
