In my experience, regular yellow (French's) mustard only gets better
with age. I bought a gallon jug once and kept it for years, because I
don't use yellow mustard in restaurant quantity. It lost it's bright
yellow color after a while and tasted more and more like "good"
mustard. It got to the point where you couldn't tell it had started
off as cheap yellow mustard, it tasted that good.
