Honeycup Mean Mr. Mustard Ad (Proposed)
In this ad for Honeycup Mustard (my favorite brand of honey mustard by a long shot, but which is hard to find here), Mean Mr. Mustard is a man who loves mustard, but he’s mean because he is so unhappy and frustrated that he cannot find any mustard he deems worthy of the name mustard. But then one day, someone gifts him with a jar of Honeycup Mustard, and he finds its taste and spicy bite fit for the gods. And so he becomes Mild Mr. Mustard, thanks to the rich, spicy taste of Honeycup Mustard. (But then, in a tag, we see him unable to find a delicious Mayonnaise, and so he becomes Mean Mr. Mayonnaise {or Mean Mr. Mayo}, until he finds Sir Kensington’s Mayonnaise. In fact, Mean Mr. Mayonnaise could be a separate ad for Sir Kensington’s Mayonnaise.)
