Is this guy a mideast style muslim or a U.S. style black muslim like all the ones in U.S. jails? Is Musselman's apple sauce a muslim company? Maybe Musselman's has a muslim connotation like P&G has that satanic connotation?

All good questions. Musselman's......I knew I had heard that name before when I was reading this article - thank you for reminding me where.

Musselman's is a really old food brand -- at least 60 years in this country, probably more. I think it is an old German name.

Here is a "History of a Musslelman family" from Lancaster County, PA who say the following on their web site: "One theory supported only by family stories is that the Musselman surname is derived from the word Meuse as in River Meuse, which runs between Holland and Germany. Meus-el-man i.e. the man from the River Meuse gradually changed into …Meusselman…then to Musselman. In our family Bible, it is written Muffelman with a 1799 entry. The double "ff" is an old style writing of "ss". Research indicates a name change occured when leaving the old world."

Look at some of the people named Musselman here.
