described as a sweet, thick mustard, golden-brown in color,
consisting of 49 percent sugar, 23 percent water, 16.5 percent
mustard, 2 percent flour, 5 percent xanthan gum, and 0.5 percent
salt.
The applicable subheading for the mustard will be

(HTS), which provides for mustard flour and meal and prepared
mustard...prepared mustard. The rate of duty will be 4.1 cent
per kilogram.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above
should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time
this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions
