What You Should Know

You'd spot a 12 oz jar of ZATARAIN'S Creole Mustard on the grocery condiment aisle or on a picnic table at a backyard barbecue, ready to jazz up sandwiches, sausages, and remoulades. It gives a practical, slightly nostalgic Creole vibe—familiar regional flavor in a convenient bottle. Although the ingredient list is short, the presence of xanthan gum and the smooth, shelf-stable formulation point to industrial processing and the texture/stability typical of ultra-processed condiments.
