This might be a generation thing, but whenever I hear Grey Poupon I think of Wayne's World making fun of the original commercial.

I'm wondering if she had the "Prez Obama Burger"? That thing is absolutely delicious: Applewood bacon, onion marmalade, horseradish mayo and Roquefort.

That guy needs to go back to grading papers and stop worrying about what kind of mustard the President eats.

Dijon mustard is delicious and versatile, and I'll wager that French plebes love the stuff--there goes the elitist argument. There are plenty of reasons to knock Obama, most of them political, IMO, so critiquing his choice of condiment is silly.

I'm one of those desperate, grasping at straws republicans, and I put it on everything :)

my dad's a republican [i can forgive him because he's my dad], a 100% mccain-votin-NRA-card-carrying republican, but even he can respect a man who likes some variety in his mustards! a real man likes mustard! all kinds of mustard! yellow mustard may be "all american" but any man who's eaten a brat knows yellow mustard is for pussies.

"with mustard seeds from Canada[...]"

Pinko socialist mustard seeds from Soviet Canuckistan!

There you have it folks. What more proof do you want?

@mdeatherage - whoah slow down there, too many facts! Those pesky things take the fun out of good old fashion hate mongering and demagoguery.

more like guitar queero...yeah, i know it's offensive.

kevinfinnerty pretty much covered the whole issue in his three posts above. they are trying to manufacture a story knowing that people (of a certain age) think of those commercials when they hear dijon. apparently those party rebranding sessions have been pretty successful.

More like grey poop-on, amiright?

(Useless comments are allowed on Friday afternoons, no?)

@SqueezeBottle: You totally just made my day.

I followed the link and I'd swear it was a parody, like some kind of weird parody that doesn't quite hit the funny mark.

Are you telling me that somebody is actually trying to make a story out of this?

They still remember the ad with the two guys in Rolls-Royce limousines:

"Pardon me, would you happen to have any Grey Poupon?"

"But of course."

I believe the soundtrack was a string quartet...
