How Do You Clean Mustard Stains In A Carpet?
It is believed that the Romans were the first to use mustard as a condiment, of course to them it was “mustem ardens,” from which the word mustard is derived. Mustard is a popular condiment for sandwiches, hot dogs and burgers that comes in varying degrees of brown to shockingly yellow. This choice condiment is great on a sandwich, but if it happens to find its way to other surfaces, such as carpeting, you may not find it so great anymore.
