Wow. Using Shakespeare to sell … mustard? Take THAT, Grey Poupon!

Good Master Mustardseed, I know your patience well:
that same cowardly, giant-like ox-beef hath
devoured many a gentleman of your house: I promise
you your kindred had made my eyes water ere now. I
desire your more acquaintance, good Master
Mustardseed.

  Because when I think of Mustard, the first thing that pops into my mind is “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”
