Despite Putin's actions, the museum decided to honor Russian mustards as a 'part of mustard history'.
The museum is a non-profit organization and does not sell Russian mustards. There is an independent gift shop for the museum, but it also does not sell Russian mustards.
The museum made headlines when a visitor noticed that a sign had been placed near a mustard display that read, "The Russian mustards have been temporarily removed. They will return once the invasion of Ukraine is over and Russia recognizes and respects the sovereign nation of Ukraine." Levenson confirmed that the sign has been replaced with a new one that reads, "We know that the makers of the Russian mustards are not responsible for the war in Ukraine. That is why these Russian mustards are still on display. We ask you to consider a donation to the International Rescue Committee , a non-governmental organization that provides much needed humanitarian support to the refugees who are fleeing Ukraine.
