Everybody who either A) lives in New York City aka the rotten apple or B) has ever been to NYC (i fall under option A) knows that there is either a deli or pizza joint on EVERY BLOCK. So recently i've been to a couple of different delis and I'm pretty standard with my hoagies, I always get mustard, but every time i order it, I consistently get the the hoagie preparer replying to my request with "Coldddddddddddddddd Mustard." I just shake my head and take my meal...The mustard is never cold, why is it refered to as cold mustard?

Cold mustard is a sauce used on fish and roast beef. Supposed to be pretty good. Here is the recipe to make it at home... the reason I give you this so you know what is in it.
1/3 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tsp. white wine vinegars
3 tbsp. Dijon mustards
1 tbsp. minced green onions
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

Step Two Click to enlargeCover and chill thoroughly. Serve with fish, shellfish, cold roast beef or vegetables.

Actually, mustard can be held out of the refrigerator or in it,but it is not a hot sauce.So they were asking this question because they don't know if they can bake the mustard in the oven -you can't bake mayonnaise,which is similar to mustard-. But I know what you are talking about,I always order for a pizza with chicken,onions and mustard sauce!

I guess it's the opposite of hot as in bite type heat rather than physical heat.
Which would somehow go against the whole point of mustard if you ask me. Mustard should make your scalp feel as if it's trying to escape from your head.
Give me some Hot English Mustard any day of the week.

You can buy "hot" mustard that has a bite to it. Or you can buy regular mustard ("cold" mustard).
Unless you specify that you want hot mustard, they're assuming you want the regular stuff. That's why they yell out cold mustard - they're letting the guys know that it's not the hot stuff.

Hmm maybe because it isn't spicy mustard and they need to quickly differentiate between the two...
