This “hot kielbasa” didn’t require any mustard.

NEW YORK – A Brooklyn butcher shop worker called his specialty “hot kielbasa” _ for snorting, not eating.
Police Commissioner Ray Kelly says the kielbasa was really cocaine _ not the Polish sausage sold in a popular meat market.
According to a criminal complaint, the “hot kielbasa” was kept in the basement.
Twenty-six suspects are under arrest, including the butcher, after an FBI informant visited the shop in response to the message: “Come to the store, I have hot kielbasa for you.”
Law enforcement officials say the ring includes John Guarnieri, a nephew of Louis Eppolito, the former NYPD detective convicted of murdering eight people on the orders of a Mafia boss.
