An American asked Brits for help before trying British mustard for the first time and they were only too happy to help
We went searching for a little bit of respite from writing about Iran and found this, an absolute gem of a Q&A from Reddit which will never fail to make us laugh.
It’s an American who reached out across the Atlantic to see if Brits had any advice for them before trying British mustard for the first time.
Here’s what woofwooflol had to say.
‘American here, trying British mustard for the first time. What should I expect?’
And these Brits were only to happy to help and it’s a proper delight.
