That One Mustard Obsessed Person.

                        Normally people are known for their small obsessions, for instance an obsession with cucumbers, butter, salt, or any other food. Then there are those people with large obsessions of food, where they eat it almost every day or with everything for example; Mustard. Mustard is a yellow substance that brings on a tangy flavor that comes from the lemon juice and possibly the other ingredient. Its best known for its use in sandwiches, salads and the occasional marinades. But in this short story mustard is used on a daily basis by a certain gentlemen that works at a certain restaurant called La Mustard, where everything is used with mustard, every dish has a signature mustard garnish. I know what you're thinking, who would go to a place that uses mustard so much?! That is a simple question with a simple answer, Mustard addicts of course! This gentleman works as the sous chef also known as the under-chef. He works with a certain jar of mustard or also known as The Jar. This jar has been in that very kitchen since the building was opened; now this mustard was homemade by the very first chef that worked in La Mustard.

                        This mustard jar was not old actually only around 15 years and 7 sous chefs. This mustard was just dying to be used after being kept in a jar for so long! Its dreams were about to come true because one day that very restaurant ran out of mustard and would not get any until 2 PM but the restaurant could not close its door on the obsessed mustard users! So the sous chef declared that they would use that large jar of mustard to satisfy their beloved customers! So finally after sitting on shelf for 15 years waiting to be used by any of the 7 sous chef the jar was finally used for their dishes! The jar was split into 7 different glass bowls one mixed with honey another mixed with pepper.
