Mustard Love
FOUND by Curtis Green
in Madison, Wisconsin
I found this touching little list at a grocery store. For some strange reason I get the feeling they probably needed toilet paper too, but forgot to write it down.

Traditionally, mustard is the sexiest of all condiments.
Audrey you my dear are right. It is the sexiest condiment. As I write this, I sit infront of my computer with only a large glob of mustard covering my manhood. It is a dijon brown mustard that I bought at Whole Foods. Some might call me crazy or disgusting even, but I feel no shame thanks to you. When the rest of the world judges me I will think of AudreyLynn in Seattle and stay strong. Oh shit! The doorbell just rang I need to put on some pants!

I love it. "Mustard"...
Tingle, I hope you don't reuse the mustard in your house.
In my mind a lady started this list, with her neat penmanship and sweet love note at the bottom, and left it out for her douche bag boyfriend to add on to, he could only put down the remote long enough to write mustard with a sharpie, because he had it in his pocket, from writing last nights set list. but hey that's just me.
I love the addition of the love note at the bottom.
Its not a shopping list, its what she loves. She has no one else in her life and so remembers that, even if she is lonely, she'll always have swiss cheese and mustard.
livvy, if she's so alone, then why is "mustard" written in someone else's hand?
Yep yep, definately the age long tale of how women and men are different if you ask me. The girlfriend writes down healthy stuff, (stawbbery swirl,swiss cheese,oj,milk) and even leaves a cutesy romantic footnote, leaves the note on the fridge, goes to work or where ever, the boyfriend gets the note to go shopping and jots down mustard in the first thing he grabs.
Happens all the time, probably a young couple since there's not that much stuff they needed.
Ofcourse there's always the chance that it could be not boyfriend/girlfriend but any male/female relationship mother/son sister/brother. Girls are the ones that make everything cutesy and guys are matter of fact. It's just how it goes
Mustard might be written in the same hand with an impliment that's handy at a later time. We shouldn't get too pissy about it.
What's important is that the note is hilarious.
OR, it could be an angsty proclamation of supermarket love.
I actually think that "mustard" was written by the same person - just in a different pen. Take a look at the r's. They all look like v's to me, and the "t" has the bar right in the middle. I think that it could be the same person. You handwriting can look different in a different pen...which begs the question, who does she love so much?
Yeah you people are blind, it's so obviously the same person's handwriting, just a different pen. Maybe she wrote it with whatever she had in her purse as she was driving to the store and only had one hand free or something. And who's to say she's so sensitive and everything? Maybe she writes the love thing on everything and is totally smothering the guy, or girl, or whoever. You don't know. Or maybe it's a love note to herself? I wonder why the parentheses though? And I'm sorry but cheese, lunch meat and sugar-laden juice are not all that healthy. I'm just saying.
i never noticed the "(i love you so much)" on the bottem. i like that.
why does no one ask if the I love you is written by someone else on the bottom of a list left on the counter? it looks different to me. so much neater.
Lydia, i thought so too at first, but look at the S and the u.
here's the situation: person 1 writes list, writes i love you, leaves it for person 2, who is supposed to go shopping (or at least add something to the list). Person 2 never comes home, or sleeps in, or otherwise gets out of this duty. Person 1 then goes shopping and on the way there remembers to add mustard, in whatever implement is available. you can draw your own conclusions on the genders of these people.
What is this exotic "Strawberry Breeze" I've been hearing about?
Erica, Welch's Strawberry Breeze is a type of juice. It's good, too, but I haven't seen it around me lately so I don't know if they still make it.
clearly it is the same person writing the stuff down, look at the r's and the t's. the persons r's look more like v's and the t's are always crossed in the middle.
God, this really is the sweetest thing I've seen in a long time!
What no bread for the meat, cheese and mustard?
I write love notes to my food all the time, doesn't everybody?
Not to state the obvious or anything; the note is for her husband/ bf and she wrote it while getting ready for work. She added the "i love you so much" so she wouldn't feel guilty for telling him to go to the grocery store.
What about bread? Maybe they were on a low-carb diet. Or perhaps they already had a loaf at home?
I am almost certain what happened here was that the persons ball point pen was running out of ink (hence the scribble spot on the left side) so they grabbed the next closest writing utensil which happened to be Sharpie.
"Mustard" is just a damn good word.
i think its kinda funny that swiss cheese made this exclusive list and it was found in wisconsin! :) i love grocery lists
I think this is adorable. I leave notes like, "I love you," on my parent's bill envelopes, grocery lists, etc. all the time.
it reminds me of the kids @ a day care that i volenteer @'s grcery list were kids always write random things on it
please note that the word 'mustard' is written in silver sharpie, indicating that mustard is extra-special!
omg Sara. i love your your idea of the note. i agree. men overlook so much and who knows how many think mustard is more important than a thoughtful "i love you". such a sad world/
MUSTARD! because the bitch forgot it on the last trip. She loves him so much.
"A sammich without bread isn't a sammich! It's meat with mustard on your hands!"
(bonus points for anyone who knows that one)
I'm trying to figure out why the submitter of this find thinks they needed toilet paper
oh oh so much, even more than avocados!
I also do. much more than pancakes, infact heaps heaps more than pancakes.
the parentheses were on purpose, trying to make it look cuter. definitely the same writing.. maybe a single woman, young-ish, based on the writing. thinking of the guy she loves who does not love her back!? maybe..
do u people have nothing better to do than anilyze a grocery list!
I *L O V E* MUSTARD!
P.D.: May I add that mustard will ALWAYS be extra-special? =D
