Obama puts mustard on his hamburgers

Ken S. · #1 8th May 2009, 09:42 AM

I am outraged.

Radical Edward · #2 8th May 2009, 09:45 AM

No kidding. Mustard freaks me out.

the Lady · #3 8th May 2009, 09:47 AM

I put both on mine. Ketchup AND mustard. Dijon mustard, no less.

Uthrecht · #4 8th May 2009, 09:49 AM

For those of you who hate mustard: why do you hate freedom?

Heathen. Grab the torches, boys!

By the way, I have noticed that the single best topic on this board to engender hate-fueled rage and endless arguments seems to be food. It's quite amazing. Liberal vs. conservative, even god vs. atheism pales in comparison to bread vs. pizza.

I don't hate mustard, I fear it. It's all yellow and... mustardy.

I put mayonaise on my cheeseburgers.

Hot dogs get mustard.

ETA: I put ketchup on my burger. Certified organic ketchup made from tomatoes grown in shade, harvested under Fair Trade restrictions, shipped no more than two miles to my local, union-run, co-op green grocer. Take that, Hamwitty.

Muskrat Love · #11 8th May 2009, 10:08 AM

I find new reasons to like him every day. Mustard is the only thing that should be put on hamburgers (well, sometimes BBQ sauce, but never mayo or catsup).

GreyCloud9 · #12 8th May 2009, 10:08 AM

Lol, I hope to beat that soon! ketchup on my burger made by me personally, from from organically grown heirloom tomatoes, grown by me personally, in my backyard.

Hi, Neighbor! · #13 8th May 2009, 10:09 AM

I eat raw mustard seeds. It's more "pure" that way.

That's the worst kind! It's all yellow and nasty. One time I was eating a hot dog and I noticed it tasted funny, so I looked down AND IT HAD MUSTARD ON IT! The sneaky jerks had put it on the bun, under the cheese, so as to sneak a miniscule amount of the yellow horror into my diet. GAHHHHH!

Hi, Neighbor! · #15 8th May 2009, 10:11 AM

Mustard is good on hot pretzels, but not much else.

Muskrat Love · #16 8th May 2009, 10:16 AM

What's so gross about mustard? It's just mustard seeds and vinegar. Mustard seeds are awesome (always include a lot when making Indian food).

Mayo is gross. Raw eggs and lemon juice whipped into a nasty thick white substance?

And catsup is generally too sweet, although I do like it on bacon sandwiches.

redtail · #17 8th May 2009, 10:20 AM

Well, of course he does. That's what goes on the bottom bun, next to the meat. The top bun, of course, gets mayo for the veg.

Now his choice of mustard could be dissed. Dijon on a hamburger? I think not! There are a variety of good mustards, from basic yellow to whole-grain, that are great on hamburgers, but wine mustard is just wrong.

At least he's not putting ketchup on it. Nasty!

Weak. I eat mustard, raw mustard seeds, and huff mustard gas. Enjoyment in three phases.

*Gasp* Impeachment now!

Then we should call it Spicy Yellow Freedom Juice!

Juice? What's juice? It's called "drink."

Aha! It is all clear now. The outrage IS because it's from France. Because France is clearly an enemy and The Destroyer of Freedom. Eating vaguely French-related food supports terrorism.

Sneaky Obama thought he could hide, but his Dijon-eating ways have exposed him. Obama is a terrorist!! He is allied with France!!

CENSOR DIJON.
CALL IT SPICY YELLOW FREEDOM JUICE.
SUPPORT AMERICA.

The word "mustard" translated into Spanish is "el mustardo."

The Futility of Nihilism · #35 8th May 2009, 11:38 AM

Either mustard or mayo is OK depending on whatever I feel like. If I do do mustard, I do not want that stanky yellow stuff, I want a decent dijon or maybe a spicy brown mustard that actually tastes like something. And god damn it, do not get ketchup anywhere near that burger you unwashed heathens!

Is it just me, or does it sound like Hannity read some of our "food versus" threads and actually took one seriously?

Like you have room to talk here. You're obviously the Jesus hater if you're willing to whip your miracles!

Then again, Jesus did have a kinky thing for being whipped so maybe I'm totally wrong here ...

The irony is that Hannity was showing him in a picture with Grey Poupon. Grey Poupon is an American product made by Kraft. It's not like it's really all that fancy either. What is it, like 6 bucks a jar? Yeah, that's up there with fois gras and truffles.

Grey Poupon is a kind of Dijon mustard, therefore our outrage is completely justified.

Completely.

Catsup (serving size 1 tbsp)
calories 15
sugar 3g
Sodium 167 mg

Mustard (serving size 1 tsp)
calories 3
sugar 0 sodium 57 mg

Can't you see? All these catsup people are why obesity is so prevalent in America. Why do you people hate America?

what do you mean this ain't the talk like a doper thread

Ken S. · #42 8th May 2009, 01:04 PM

Mustard only is a Chicago thing anyway, isn't it? Or is that just with hot dogs.

Mustard on burgers is a Texas thing. Two fast food chains have sold a "Texas" burger in the last several years, and each one has mustard as the only condiment (Jack in the Box's "Big Texas Cheeseburger" and the sadly lamented "Texas Double Cheeseburger" from Wendy's). People up north thing hamburgers are sandwiches and put mayo on them.

Panacea · #44 8th May 2009, 01:38 PM

When I worked at Wendy's (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth), a burger ordered with catsup, pickle, mustard was commonly known as a 'kids burger'. Lots of folks liked that particular combo, whether they were kids or not.

Southern hamburgers used to come in three ways: 1. Dressed, which was mayo-tomato-lettuce; 2. Everything, which added catsup, mustard, pickles, and onions; or 3. plain. This was served with one of those small bottles of Co-col'er and big fat crinkle cut fries.

Phoebe,OrNotPhoebe · #45 8th May 2009, 01:54 PM

Mustard on a burger - oh yes!

Mustard with cheese is the best

shamrock · #46 8th May 2009, 02:23 PM

Everything is better with mustard.

I even use a little mustard when making tuna salad and macaroni salad (it cuts the mayo - I really don't like mayo).

I have five different kinds of mustard in my kitchen right now.

Except for that bright yellow "mustard" crap. That cheap yellow abomination. That stuff is just gross.

Phoebe,OrNotPhoebe · #47 8th May 2009, 02:24 PM

Definitely mustard with tuna & macaroni - yum.

When you talk of "that cheap yellow abomination", please tell me you don't mean Colman's mustard - because I'll cry lol.

Never! I love Colman's. I have that both in a jar and the mustard powder in a tin.

I mean that French's Yellow Mustard type stuff.

Zeener Diode · #49 8th May 2009, 08:34 PM

French's Yellow Mustard is the all-American choice. No Dijon or other "Frenchy" type of mustard will do.

GreyCloud9 · #50 8th May 2009, 08:36 PM

I dunno. Horseradish mustard will put hair on your chest.
