Ingredients? Method of production and all that nitty gritty shit that lawyers have wet dreams over.

Off the top of my head...the 'original' you're referring to was not Heinz- it was Frenches - hence the point of the commercial. I think Heinz did have a mustard but was only sold wholesale to ball parks etc, not commercially @ grocery stores - or that's what I remember from an article I read a few weeks ago. I will say- I recently tried it and I do prefer it to Frenches.

we've had Heinz mustard available in stores here for what seems like forever.

Got me second guessing myself- here's the article I read (or a similar version of it)-

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...d-heinz-has-big-bold-bet-beyond-kraft-mustard

"Heinz mustard has primarily been sold through the company’s food-service business, with the product available in bulk packages and at stadiums and restaurants. To date, the company hasn’t had much of a presence at U.S. grocery stores. In making a retail push, Heinz is taking on French’s"

Sounds like they may have had more of a retail presence in Canada

Actually now that you post that picture- I think we had the same thing in the past as well...

The new stuff isn't as bright yellow, and I prefer the taste a bit to Frenches...not sure if I ever had the old Heinz stuff

I thought this one was a little funnier:https://youtu.be/IQW1K8aU6Fc

I've never been able to just buy Heinz mustard as its usually bundled with the other 2. No idea why we aren't able to buy more regular Heinz products not in mass quantities.

I usually just buy plocmanns, but if I can get it unbundled I'll try it.
