By: Alexa Mae Asperin, KRON 4 News
Los Angeles (KRON) – Mustard + ice cream.
Does the thought of it make you want gag or drool?
Some of you may soon find out!
French’s, which is America’s largest manufacturer of mustard, announced on Wednesday it is partnering with Los Angeles- based ice cream company Coolhaus to cre- ate the mustard ice cream just in time for National
Mustard Day on Saturday.
The special mus- tard ice cream will be available for a limited time- only starting Aug. 1 in Los Angeles and New York City.
French’s described the ice cream as “deliv- ering its bold, one-of-a-kind fla- vor” that’s “the perfect summer treat to be enjoyed poolside, at a birthday party, and as the perfect ending at a backyard bar- becue.”
The ice cream even comes with pretzels!
If you can’t make it to Los Angeles or NYC to get the ice cream in per- son, French’s has published an at- home recipe for those of you wanting to try to make it on your own!
Mustard Ice Cream is avail- able at Coolhaus’ location in Culver City, California, from Aug. 2-4 and Aug. 9-11. French’s Mustard Ice Cream truck will be hitting the streets of New York City on Aug. 1 and 2 before making its way out to the Hamptons on Aug. 3.
She Fell Asleep on Her Sofa, Woke Up With No Arms, Legs

(NEWSER) – A small cut on an Ohio woman's arm and a friend- ly lick from her dog led to what
a GoFundMe ca mpaign calls a "perfect storm"— and to the ampu- tation of all her limbs. Stark County salon owner Marie Trainer's ordeal began May 10, when WJW repor ts Trainer didn't feel well and went to lie down on the couch. She woke up from a coma 10 days later with both of her arms and both of her legs partially amputated. Her family initially suspected she had the flu, but when her temper-
ature started wildly fluctuating, Trainer was rushed to the hospital. Despite aggressive treat- ment, she started developing sep- sis and her limbs developed gan- grene. To save her life, doctors were forced to amputate all of her limbs.
Hospital tests soon pinpointed the issue: capno- cytophaga, a bacteria found in the saliva of dogs and cats that doesn't adversely affect the animals but can, in rare cases, spread to humans. The family thinks one of its two dogs must have licked Trainer's arm, where she had a tiny scrape. Trainer spent a total of 80 days
in the hospital, and her son tells the Alliance Review his mom is "ready to get moving forward with therapy and the new process of being able to try to walk again with prosthetics." The family says it has no intention of getting rid of the dogs, and
the CDC stresses "most people who have contact with a dog or cat do not become sick." Just be on the lookout for any redness or infection after playing with an animal or being bit by one, and go on antibiotics if you suffer a bite.
The GoFundMe campaign has brought in $10,000 as of Thursday morn- ing.
