For reasons that wholly escape me, mustard, horseradish and tartare are considered normal things to eat by some people.

They are the three horsemen of the condiment apocalypse and should be feared and avoided as such.
My father used to love Horseradish and Mustard. Can't stand them myself. ugh! I don't think the British had adopted Tartare in those days. No doubt he would have enjoyed it though.

I can still remember (why do I remember unimportant stuff but forget more important) the day I was with an acquaintance when another church member came in. He complained bitterly about mustard. French mustard should not be on shop shelves and only English mustard should be used and no doubt we should all use it.

French and English versions in the fridge mostly only used in cooking

You should try it with milk; makes a world of difference.

Not especially popular these days though - has been somewhat displaced by granola now.

There are lot of different quality muesli. The better quality ones are more wholesome and not so powdery, But I understand where you are coming from.

Talking of condiments (maybe)

But I have never eaten Tomato Ketchup.

As a man you should but reading about how slave labour is involved due to Mafia involvement may be a reason for not using anything that involves Italian grown tomatoes
