The GP sold in the EU is made in France, the GP sold in North America is made there.

I live in Alberta. I was surprised to find out we provide like 80% of the world's mustard seed.

I heard that too. The Dijon area are suffering with lack of farm land and other issues. Thanks for the mustard Canada!

Yeah I think NPR or some radio I listened to was saying that the djon area in France was having some troubles growing mustard due to climate and loss of farm land or something so actual djon sourced mustard was becoming more rare.

I think if it's not made in France it's actually just sparkling mustard.

I prefer a German brown myself, but especially in the 80s in the US, Grey Poupon was about the best you could get.

Grey Poupon is my favorite Dijon. It's more vinegar-y than most but I like that about it.
Wouldn't really compare one kind of mustard to another; American yellow mustard vs Dijon, English, German, even Scandinavian ones are all very different, it all comes down to personal taste but also what you're eating it with.

I did have some absolutely excellent Danish mustard when I was in Greenland years ago. I cant bring myself to call American Yellow a mustard though. Its awful

I'm a fan of most mustards. I still go back to the ol Colman's mustard powder and mix up my own from time to time. Like add capers or white wine vinegar.
I remember once working at a kitchen this guy was mixing the vinaigrette in a giant mixer with giant can of djon and vinegar and he spilled it on his arm and got a freaking chemical burn he went to the hospital. That was some kick ass salad dressing :)

After 2 Girls 1 Cup, I don't think I'll ever be able to take the phrase "German brown" seriously

Sounds like Don LaFontaine narrating? Miss that guy... movies are boring now without him hyping up their trailers
