Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Normally I make myself a sandwich in the morning to take for lunchtime at work, but today (because the fridge was empty), I was forced to venture into a Tim Horton's.

I ordered, and was duly served, with a "ham & swiss" with mustard.

Mustard? The bread roll was smeared with a disgusting yellow fluid reminiscent of sweetened brake fluid, rendering the putrid concoction utterly inedible.

Now, I have been into a Horton's establishment before because the OH likes an Iced Capp sometimes if we're driving long distances on a hot day.

If Mr. Horton is reading this, goodbye, I'll never see you again.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

They also offer a glutinous smear as "cream cheese". Whatever the point of Tim Horton's might be, feeding people well is not it.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Clearly. I can't express how awful this stuff was.

I can only speculate as to the point of Tim Horton's, apart from the obvious one of feeding crap to gullible stupid people.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Yeah but their donuts are good:D

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Its a bloody fast food joint - what the hell do you want and at those prices.....;)

The coffee and donuts are good though.....

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Those prices? This hideous affront to a sandwich set me back $4.19.

I'll not be risking coffee and donuts in this lifetime, thanks.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Well if you want fine dining, next time try subway.......;)

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Christ, you're not listening. I just wanted a sandwich, unpolluted by disgusting slime masquerading as mustard. I wasn't buying a ticket for the underground.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Where else would canadian pikeys and eager expats go for coffee?

Actually I think I might have posted that before - probably word for word.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Psssst...Mr. Horton is dead. :sneaky:

Maybe it was the mustard in the parlour with the...oh sorry got carried away for a second, I'm back now. :)

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

I see.

Perhaps the putrescent slime was the product of rendering down "eager expats" (presumably mostly Chinese in this case) in the melting pot?

I've heard that Tim Horton's is anyway now a subsidiary of Wendy's, or some such american corporation.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Tim Hortons food = yuck

Even their donuts are not good, Give me a krispy kreme any day.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Maybe some joker swapped the embalming fluild with the mustard?

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

I actually knew that. He was an iced hockey player, correct?

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

It was owned by Wendys for several years, but they spun off their interest in the company to focus on their core business, and Tim Hortons corporate office will be coming back to Canada, maybe already has.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Just knowing that is unhealthy and casts a suspicious light on all your doings.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

I think you are right. Tho in the list of crappy burger joints, Wendy's is reasonable high up the pecking order - at least I'd rather eat a burger from them than a sandwich from "timmies" as people like to call it.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

I thought "Timmies" was that hill outside Wimbledon?

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Yes he was an NHL player I presume he got "iced" at some point (Feb 21, 1974 to be precise).;)

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

This is endlessly fascinating. But why does he think that brake fluid is mustard?

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Second rate tennis players, second rate coffee. There is a kind of symmetry there I suppose.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Considering the manner of his death your brake fluid analogy is macabrely (is that a word) apt.

From the Wiki:

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

That's all very well. Certainly he appears to have been short of brake fluid that night. Perhaps that's where the mustard went in error?

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

There in lies the problem. :p

You requested mustard expecting this

But what you got was a variation of this

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

There's nothing good about the food at Timmies and fortunately it all has gluten in it so I can't/shouldn't eat it.

I did once try a doughnut and it was terrible. Dry and stodgy with some god awful Canadian flavour. If you want to try a real doughnut then you need to go to St John's Wood in London. The bakery on the right at the bottom of the High Street does the most divine jam doughnuts. Well it did 20 years ago.

I'm rambling again, but its late and I'm at work and this is Novo's thread so I feel OK about that. It's not as if he's a sensitive flower who will faint and wilt if his mustard slime is hijacked. He may even feel good about it, but I doubt it. Still it's good to have our Marvin back isn't it?

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

IT'S 9.54PM................:lol:

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

That's late in Canada. What time do you start work/get up etc??

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?

YOu need less sleep than I do then. Getting up at 6am means in bed by 10om for me.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

Should've guessed. Brain the size of the universe, I have.

I hope you don't find me depressing?

Try Tim Horton's for that.

Re: Tim Horton's mustard... wtf was that?
 

lol no, not depressing , but you do have your moments...

I like your moments :o

Should I have said that out loud?

Would you have preferred trollope?
