The violet mustard of Brive has its own papal Grand Moutardier

The violet mustard of Brive is a condiment colored by grape must. It became famous when Pope Clement VI, originally from Rosiers-d'Égletons, demanded to consume it in Avignon. He thus had a grocer from Turenne named Master Javbertie brought in to grant him the official function of Grand Moutardier of the Pope.
