Bucket O' Bulletz

I surely do. I was asked to do an honest review of Grey Poupon mustards and I am rather pleased to tell you all about it. Since the first time I watched that commercial, I have been wishing for Grey Poupon. I know I probably could have bought some, but being so sale oriented, I never took the time to seek it out and buy it for myself. I usually just settle for whatever is on the shelf for a dollar.

Now I wish that I had listened to my craving. I received 2 full sized jars of mustard: hearty spicy brown and harvest coarse ground. Both have their merits alone and combined with other ingredients. My husband and I both tried them in the practical ways most people would eat mustard:

My husband did not care too much for the extra spice of the coarse mustard on the hot dogs, but thought that the more mild hearty spicy was better. He also preferred the hearty spicy on his sandwiches. I can go for the spice of coarse. I adore spicy mustard, the spicier the better.

I even made dinner with it last night. My husband got the savory hearty spicy brown covered pork chops:

He enjoyed them, but he actually wanted a bit more of his usual flavorings. After dousing them in a bit of sazon, they were perfect.

I had the mustard chicken with the coarse mustard:

Talk about delicious! I have to get some more boneless chicken to put that on. I thawed the chicken, dried it, covered it in coarse mustard, then breaded the pieces with my homemade breadcrumbs. Bake 20 minutes and there you go! Perfection.

Now, for the unconventional ways I used the mustard. I enjoy the kick of the spice, as I mentioned before. So what did I do with the mustard?

That’s right! I slathered the hearty spicy on my quesadillas. I did try the coarse on it, but with the ingredients it was a bit much. I just finished them off with the hearty spicy and called it lunch. I added the coarse brown as a topping on my cheese pizza. Then I took the coarse brown and mixed it in with my light italian dressing to pour over my homemade chef salad. I had to have seconds on everything! I just could NOT stop eating these mustards.

I was so pleased with these mustards that I am definitely going to make a point of finding them the next time I run out of spicy mustard!

Just a few weeks ago I had gone with my family to the big warehouse store where we do our bulk shopping. We always get my son a 12 pack of Silk Soy milk in quarts. Never have we had a problem buying these in bulk, as they are the type that you can leave out of the fridge until you open them. We get through 2 quarts and find the next one is sour! Now, these quarts are good till October 5, 2008 so I am like “WTH?”

The next one is good, so I figure it’s a freak occurance. Well, when we get to quart number 5 I get yet another one filled with oily cheese of soy. EW! That’s the moment I decided to go through the box and see just what was going on. The entire box (minus 4) were spoiled! I called Silk and told them what was going on, the purchase price, and that I was upset by all this.

The lady on the phone was very helpful. She sympathized with my situation and talked to me and spoke to me with respect. I was so pleased with the customer service that I received. She immediately sent me a refund check for the full purchase price without hesitation.

Thank you for your superior customer service, Silk. You have just kept a frequent customer!
