Honey Mustard: Makes or breaks the meal

A sandwich is not complete with out a good honey mustard. Any sandwich, french fries, chicken fingers, grilled cheese, you name it once you add honey mustard to it everything just gets BETTER. But that being said...bad honey mustard can actually ruin the entire meal. I have been a victim of multiple bad honey mustard experiences and let me tell you, it is not pretty. For example, Uncle's Deli in Darian, CT.  It is famous for it's sandwiches so naturally I'm all excited about going. We arrive, I get a sandwich, we get home, start eating and BOOM. Literally FIRE coming out of my nose thats how hot the honey mustard was. It was one of the worst experiences I've ever had. I couldn't breathe and I most certainly couldn't eat. I kept trying to eat around it because I was hungry but I just could not escape it.

I don't understand how any one can enjoy a honey mustard like that. Who likes fire to come out of their nose while eating a turkey sandwich? No one does, NO ONE. So thats why I am confused as to why restaurants continue to serve it to me with out warning. There's a place near my school that has a good turkey, brie and apple sandwich. I always add honey mustard because WHY NOT. I get back to school go to get the sandwich, sit down, take bite and THERE IT IS AGAIN fire out of my nose because the honey mustard is basically poison. Entire meal just completely ruined and now I refuse to go there and get it.

Another weird type of honey mustard I've recently experienced is honey mustard that actually tastes like jelly and has weird tiny bead-like seeds in it. At first I thought I ordered the wrong thing but then I realized oh no they just changed the honey mustard, which means they ruined the entire sandwich for me. Great. Why change something when you know it's good, they must know this honey mustard tastes like jelly. If I wanted jelly on my turkey sandwich I would tell you. I don't, I just want a regular honey mustard, is that asking too much?

While I have been ranting about these terrible experiences I need to also touch on the good. Any one who has ever had Friendly's honey mustard knows that it is basically Gods gift to the world. Everything about it is just PERFECT, which is weird because it's Friendly's but regardless its amazing. A lot of local places in MA like Maria's and Tedeschi's have a good honey mustard. The perfect mix of whatever it is thats in honey mustard, it doesn't make you breathe fire and just makes the sandwich. Some people like to put multiple condiments on their sandwiches like mayo (ew), or some sort of dressing but I personally am just your average girl looking for a nice honey mustard, thats all.
