French’s® has nutrition information posted on our product pages. Just visit https://www.mccormick.com/frenchs/products

Most of French's Mustards are certified kosher by the Orthodox Union. Those that are, will have the OU logo on the front label.

Dijon and Horseradish mustards will lose their distinct flavors if not refrigerated, so we encourage refrigerating both. For all other mustards, refrigeration will help maintain flavor; however, it is not necessary to refrigerate if you prefer to consume your mustard at room temperature. There are no ingredients in mustard that spoil.

Quality, freshness, and flavor are top priorities at French's. We use a “Best By” date coding system on our packaging. This is not an expiration date, however; the date stamped on the container is the date by which we recommend that you use the product in order to ensure its optimal flavor, freshness, and quality. The product will generally maintain good flavor quality for two to three months after that date, if refrigerated. While refrigeration will help maintain flavor, it's not necessary to refrigerate if you prefer to consume your mustard at room temperature. The recommended shelf life from the date of manufacture of French's® Mustard is 18 months in a squeeze bottle, and 24 months in a glass jar.
