It’s Doesn’t Get More American Than French’s

By Ed Kohler | Feb 8, 2008





I grilled a few brats the other day, then came inside to hit them with some condiments. I reached in the refrigerator and what did I find?

French's Classic Yellow Mustard

French’s. That’s right. I don’t accept cheap American knock-offs of true American yellow mustard.

If you’re still not sure that this is an American product, take a closer look at the cap. See that plastic stay-clean cap? That’s American engineering, my friend.

Here’s another tip. Flip it around:

French's Classic Yellow Mustard

Now look really close:

Made in USA

Made in U.S.A.

    Hrm… It’s true that French’s is manufactured in America, but the parent company Reckitt Benckiser is based in England.

    Now if only I could find out the kind of mustard Tryg’s serves with its fries… That’s good eatin’!!!!

    My vote goes to Plochman’s as well. Churing out all-American mustard in the little yellow keg bottles since 1852. And it’s made in the good ol’ midwest- in Manteno, IL. Plus, “French’s”…c’mon, the French are a bunch of socialist, soft-on-terror pussies, right?
