In our household it's Fountain Mustard Sauce. Unexpectedly, it's the ideal sauce for home-made hamburgers. Allegedly still being made but never in stock anywhere.

Now our burgers are flavoured with a tinge of sadness and regret.

Why don't you make it yourself? The ingredients are even given right there. It'll take some experimenting but that's fine, you might even hit on better flavours.

What, exactly, is the ingredient "flavour"?

Time to experiment!

If they've stopped selling a product, what choice do you have if your burgers are tasting like sadness?
