On this episode of Our American Stories, Barry Levinson was once the head of Wisconsin’s Criminal Appeals Division, arguing cases before the United States Supreme Court. Then the Boston Red Sox lost the 1986 World Series, and a sleepless trip to a grocery store somehow sent his life in an entirely different direction: he started collecting mustard.
Levinson tells how that unlikely obsession eventually became the National Mustard Museum in Middleton, Wisconsin, home to more than 6,000 mustards from around the world. Along the way, he shares the Supreme Court victory he credits to a jar of mustard in his pocket, the history and variety of one of the world’s oldest condiments, and why he remains perfectly happy spending his days surrounded by mustard.
