Mustard for Men!
Dear Aunt Daisy, Here’s a good hint for people sending parcels to " The Boys" overseas. Put in a tin of mustard! An old soldier told me that if ever they got hold of a tin, there was always a scramble to mix it up with a tin of jam, for it made wonderful chutney, and they got so tired of jam. Another old soldier said he had never heard of this, but thought it an excellent idea to send some, as he had not seen mustard during the four years of the last war.-" Largo" (Onehunga). I think it sounds an excellent idea. Even to eat the mustard dry on their meat would be very nice. You can get small tins of mustard which would not take up much room. You may be sure they will think up some new and exciting ways of using it.
