" it was some time later that I discovered the " Amish Mustard Pickled Eggs " and ended up liking them as well .....
Now the thing is with " Amish Mustard Pickled Eggs " is this ..... If you've never had them you'll either " not really like them " ... or ... you'll end up " Craving Them " and not be able to wait to have them again.
The other great thing about making " Amish Mustard Pickled Eggs "
