My apologies if someone has already asked this and it has been 
answered, but this list has been very busy and I've been spending a lot 
of time on getting a job. (I do have an interview on Monday. Originally 
scheduled for this afternoon, but they postponed it).

Anyway, Micaylah quoted:

So what is *mixed* mustard in this case? Two different mustards mixed 
together? Or, more likely, what I've often seen called "prepared" 
mustard today?
