Ooh, that sounds lovely! I have salmon but no Weißwurstsenf. Maybe
not here in Mexico, either, I'll have to wait until I cross the
border. I'll check at our local Walmarts - I've never looked at the
mustards.; they do carry a lot of imported stuff through NAFTA, I
guess. I can pick up British biscuits for less than $2.00 that cost
$5.00 and up in the U.S.
