  10. Yum! I don't think I ever had mustard with pork chops. I still chuckle thinking about my first taste of English mustard. It looks just like the yellow mustard that I would see in the US, which isn't strong at all, so I put a dollop on something--don't remember what now--and was astonished to feel my sinuses burning--LOL I still use it and like it, but now I know what to expect.
