So, what's Mustard Man up to today? Well, it's probably something awful and hideous, considering that he's no superhero. He's just a corporate mascot.
Just like Heinz marketed green ketchup for kids, there was a blue Mustard Man as well.It looked cool and it glowed in the dark, but it tasted revolting. But not as revolting as the music they used in the commercial.
Take the rhyme "The Muffin Man" and substitute "Mustard" for "Muffin."
Sing that six times in a row without gagging. I dare you.
They stopped making it when the glowing blue dye was found to cause blindness in laboratory rats. Or was it ovarian cancer?
Something like that.
We lost a fortune on it.
Still, it looked pretty cool.
Blue dye is tasty!
