It has come to my attention that AC/DC is the musical equivalent of mustard, and the parallels go beyond being the best band and the best food/condiment.
Mustard has always had its unique spicy flavor and has never been afraid to show it, while other condiments have always tried to appeal to the blander crowd with their boring tastes. Mustard has rarely been recognized as the great condiment it is, what with ketchup pushing itself on every burger and hot dog for publicity. However, true condiment fans recognize mustard for its special attributes and give it praise. Mustard has always been itself and independent of fast food chains who want to make it into something they would rather have it be just to make money from their burgers. Mustard has always stuck to its guns and stayed its nice yellow color and tasty flavor. People can criticize mustard for always being the same, but those who really look into it can discover and appeciate its many unique varities, such as brown mustard or honey mustard.
Compare this with ketchup. Ketchup has always pretended to be what it isn't. For goodness sakes, the tomatoes they come from try to taste like a vegetable when everyone knows they really are a fruit! The latest marketing ploys have ketchup turn green and blue instead of its original red, trying to follow whatever the big food companies feel is the big trend.
THREE CHEERS FOR MUSTARD! ALL HAIL THY SUPREME CONDIMENT!!!
