i dunno what it was that i had at this chinese place last week (i dindt  
order it), but it came with the spring rolls, and i vaguely recall that  
whoever brought it said it was mustard, and sure looked the part, smelled  
aweful and first taste wasn't so bad, just odd, but few seconds later all  
the passages in your mouth and nasal cavity felt like they were on fire  
and "tasted" like paint thinner. waiter was amused when the entire table  
asked for some ketchup in lieu of the sauce.
