Another one for my friends over at French’s... detail from 1944 ad.

I have been seeing the commercials for about a month now and I need to speak out... Heinz has introduced a new yellow mustard that is meant to push-out their longstanding rival French's from your summertime hotdogs and hamburgers and I for one say to Heinz, you can go to hell!  What has always been a grill-side staple of Heinz ketchup and French's yellow mustard, a seemingly happy coexistence of two rival condiments that complimented each other perfectly and who always shared their perch above my Mom's signature potato salad on the picnic table, are now in the midst of a nasty breakup leaving us, the hotdog and hamburger consuming public, choosing sides.  I for one am 100% in French's camp and am contemplating taking the rest of the Heinz ketchup in the refrigerator and emptying it down the sink!  The fact that the evil Heinz empire is not content with being the largest selling brand of ketchup in the United States and wanting to branch-out and corner the market and monopolize on mustard too, is absolutely repulsive and I for one will not support their plans of worldwide condiment domination!  When I found out that French's has retaliated by introducing their own line of ketchup, I anxiously scanned the supermarket shelves for my opportunity to show my love for this beloved underdog company and their right to exist in the marketplace, and Friday I did just that. So, next-time you're poolside, grill-side, lakeside, campfire-side, ocean-side, river-side or aside any other summer spot I may be missing, reach for the French's and tell these money-hungry bastards at Heinz that they can take their "57 Varieties" and shove 'em up their fat, money-hungry asses!  Vive la French's!!!
