While we were on our mini-vacation, my GF wanted to visit the famed Mustard Museum in Middleton.\n\nNow I am not a big fan of mustard, rarely use the stuff and am more of a ketchup man, so I was fairly \"meh\" on the prospect of going to the museum. However, having went I had much more fun than I was expecting.\n\nAt first, I felt like a pilgrim in a hostile land as there was a bit of anti-ketchup/mayo propaganda in the museum and gift shop, but I soon got into the spirit of the place.\n\nThe museum was interesting, had some ads, cartoons, and tons and tons of bottles of mustard from places all over the country/world. But the most interesting part for me was the rather bland but informative, documentary in their \"Mustardpiece\" theater which was narrated by one of my favorite actors, Edward Woodward (Hot Fuzz, The Wickerman- original). \n\nWhile the museum was somewhat interesting, the gift shop is where the Mustard Museum truly shines. It had a countless number of mustard's (which you could take up to the \"tasting bar\" and have a sample of their wares), and a wide assortment of mustard related merchandise. But they also have a good selection of non-mustard items including Hot and BBQ sauces and some nice cheeses and sodas. But one thing that caught my eye was a VERY awesome item which I HAD to buy; the \"Mr. Bacon VS. Monsieur Tofu\" bendy action figure set!\n\nAll in all, an interesting and enjoyable experience and a great place to shop for some unique items and award winning mustards.
