Football History

"Spicing Things Up"

June 10, 1720 - Durham, England's very own Mrs. Clements markets the first mustard in a paste form. She found that when mustard seeds were ground into a fine powder like flour, it had a distinct flavor.

Clements shared the paste with her neighbors, and word spread to King George I, who patented the substance for Mrs. Clements. Think about this 300-year-old event the next time you are chowing down a "dog" or burger with mustard at a football game.
