Batts Dijon Mustard — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates Batts Dijon Mustard by Batts OKAY — score 62/90.

Six ingredients and most of them belong in Dijon mustard — but water leads the list and mustard seeds sit at just 25%, so this is a diluted budget rendition of the French classic. The sulphite preservative is the only real flag, and only if you're sulphite-sensitive. Honest condiment, watered-down execution.

Why this verdict

• Short, mostly traditional 6-ingredient list: seeds, vinegar, salt — the Dijon basics are all here
• Water is the first ingredient and mustard seeds are only 25% — classic Dijon leads with seeds
• Potassium metabisulphite (E224) preservative — a sulphite that can trigger reactions in sensitive people and asthmatics, and keeps this out of MUNCH
• No added sugar, no oils, no artificial colors or flavor enhancers
• Sodium is condiment-typical — high per 100g, trivial per teaspoon
