The celery seed makes me very happy.

Yay! Happy xtingu makes me happy!

Basically the mustard and celery seed duplicate the seasoning you'd get if you use pickle jar liquid, though there's definitely a difference between tasting the celery seed flavor from the pickles versus getting an actual celery seed in a forkful of the potato salad.
