Weird how mustard (the condiment) tastes so good yet the cultivars of this particular species all taste horrible to me.

i mean mustard (the condiment) is basically just a flavourful sugary starch paste, anything tastes good with 15 grams of sugar.
It's also a completely different part of the plant, it's like going "man i like apples but the seeds taste horrible! how odd"

The mustard you're eating seems to be quite different from mine. Mine has a whopping 2.6 grams of carbohydrates per 100g, some of the brassica vegetables probably have more than that.
