its for fat people like pepsi

>>12752216
because its popular

you know why

>>12752216
It's white.

>>12752216
Bacause people associate it with lard asses. Fat people that abuse ranch are ruining it for the rest of us.

That picture with the two land whales sitting in front of a comically large pizza comes to mind. One of them is trying to open a bottle of ranch like her life depends on it

Because the people who don't like it don't like it.

>>12752216
Homemade and housemade ranch can be really tasty with certain things. But people use way too much of it on way too many things and typically with disgusting shelf stable bottled stuff that tastes like ass.

>>12752216
it's fucking disgusting

I hate it because that's the thing i had before getting sick and throwing up and associate it with being sick now

>>12752216
Because it's American.
And it should get all the hate... because it's American.

>>12752216
Because most ranch is garbage. Homemade buttermilk ranch is good.

>>12752216
Idk. I like it a lot tho. The powdered stuff in the package that you mix with mayo and buttermilk is my favorite.

>>12752216
"white trash sauce"

99% of ranch has vegetable oil as first ingredient.
cheap white crap similar to mayo

>>12752333
>buying pre-made ranch
>expecting quality
I hope this helps illustrate how wrong you are

>>12752216
I just made ranch chicken. Just pulled out of the oven

>>12752216
I personally like it, great for dip with veggies.

>>12752230
Heh

>>12752216
Real talk, what's the best spice mix for home-made Ranch seasoning? Most recipes I've seen call for
>parsley
>dill
>chives
>onion powder
>garlic powder
>salt
>pepper
And then powdered dairy if you're into that. Seems to simple to be all that's in Ranch spice wise.

>>12752615
That looks right. Dill is what gives it that unique ranch flavor.

>>12752275
People hate it because it's popular, overused, and American. Shit like this gets sold all the way from Britain to parts of Africa despite it being more acidic mayo, but if you add garlic/herbs and an American name it's an abomination.

>>12752216
Would you eat food with a white, creamy, substance on it?

>>12752687
You dont like pizza or queso?
More for me I guess

>>12752693
Not a fan of Italian dishes, I hate the smell, plus I’m lactose intolerant

>>12752710
As a subhuman, your opinion doesnt matter.

>>12752710
You should check out more parts of north Italy, where there's humans.

blue cheese or go fuck your mother

>>12752216
Euros like to hate on it because they don't have it.

>>12752733
Theres a place and time for each

Ranch dressing is based af but flyovers and Basketball Americans who drink it like water are disgusting

>>12752216
I wasn't aware ranch got much hate. I personally don't like it, and sometimes that gets a reaction from people, but I don't care that my friends do like it

>>12752918
go fuck your mother

How come people can order BBQ sauce pizzas from everywhere, but I'm shunned for making ranch sauce pizzas?

>>12752942
Add in some Frank's Red Hot and it's a god-tier fries dip.

>>12752942
lol these fat fucks never seem to understand that they charge for sauces because they deal with too many fat fucks cleaning them out because they need like 8 cups of ranch for 4 tendies

>>12752216
>because its popular
^This. It's one of the most blatant examples of contrarianism I can think of, up there with saying the Beatles were a shit band or Ocarina of Time was a bad Zelda game.
Basically it's a common tendency for people to push back in the opposite direction when they feel themselves getting pushed, both literally and metaphorically (in the literal sense they teach you to exploit this tendency in wrestling by pushing forward on the opponents arm/s and then releasing the pressure so that the force they were exerting to push back is no longer being balanced with your own and then you can perform your preferred throw with their momentum assisting you).

>>12753006
>wasn't aware ranch got much hate.
It does and it doesn't.
Which is to say, in the real world, most people have a favorable opinion of ranch. In fact you might be surprised to learn ranch has long since surpassed blue cheese as the preferred dip for buffalo wings (per the National Chicken Council, which is the trade association that represents U.S. broiler chicken industry interests in Congress and other federal agencies).
On the internet, you mostly read from the people who hate it because of how popular it's become, and the majority who like ranch dressing mostly don't care enough to post about it.

>>12753335
The white man eats his wings with blue cheese. Do it like a white man.

>57% of wings eaten with ranch
Yeah, the commit 50% of the crime, and eat 57% of the hot wings, and are only 13% of the population.

>>12753378
>Bringing /pol/ bullshit into wing dip choices
Fuck off, I'm super white and prefer ranch.

>>12753461

Your white card has been revoked.

i went to the first restaurant in the world to serve ranch dressing outside of the original "hidden valley" - Cold Spring Tavern in Santa Barbara. They serve fresh onion rings with fresh ranch dressing and it's fucking good.

>>12753479
You have no authority to do that, fuckstick.

>>12752216
because incels here hate everything that anyone likes outside of McDonalds value menu.

>>12752216
because it tastes disgusting, and the people who like it slather it on everything. pizza, ribs, eggs fries, you name it.

>>12752615
Get heavy cream or whipping cream and whisk it in a mixer until it forms a solid mass around your whisk like well past the point of whipped cream and deflated whipped cream, that's butter, save the liquid under it. Take the butter and out it in a cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as you can that's true buttermilk not the super acidic shit you buy in stores. Now put both in seperate airtight containers adding the seasoning to the buttermilk and let them sit on top of your fridge for a few days maybe a week. Afterwards taste them the butter should be slightly sour which is a Norwegian way of preserving butter and quite tasty you can mix in salt to curb the fermentation or just refrigerate it at this point. The buttermilk should be seasoned well via diffusion and thickened up a little as well as being slightly soured as well that's a lacto-fermented way of making ranch. Doing it this way you can control the acidity to your liking and the thickness (via straining it with cheesecloth) it's also the homestead original way of making it that's not mayo seasoned with a packet and a splash of buttermilk you get at most restaurants or the vegetable oil and soy protien shit you get from a bottle

>>12753461

>>12752216
I do one part ranch one part kroger hot salsa and a bag of Juanita's for every company potluck and people always ask for the dip recipe.

We love ranch, but the media has taught us to hate ourselves and therefore ranch by proxy.

overglorified mayonnaise, and I love it...

>>12753610
some people like me just find it genuinely nasty. especially when you watch a person dump half a bottle on a pizza. pizza doesn't need ranch.

>>12753620
>pizza doesn't need ranch
pizza doesn't need pizza. fuck pizza, and fuck you

You jackoffs need to get into tartar sauce. That's the real ranch.

>>12753620
Pizza doesn't holistically, but the crust begs for ranch.

>>12753626
no, just straight up mayonnaise. fuck you

>>12753628
no the crust doesn't need anything.

>>12753629

Fine cut dill pickles, mayo, 10% vinegar, half a lemon squeezed, cooking onion ultra fine diced, dill weed either fresh or dried.

THAT is sauce. I can give you a hidden valley ranch style ranch recipe if you want.

>>12753253
That's my tendie dip.

>>12753663
No, mayonnaise by itself. In extreme circumstances: add tamari. Fucking heretic

>>12753719

Are you a supertaster? Otherwise, you're just a dumb cunt.

>>12753725
>you're just a dumb cunt
I know you are, but what am I?

>>12753719

Some people are cursed to see ultraviolet, the same holds for super tasters. tasting things that dogs smell with their 16 million receptors.

If you're a super taster then your opinion matters, after that, you're just some stupid cunt.

I don't get mayo as a condiment. it's literally just spreadable oil. usually s*y oil and not even one with flavor like olive oil. if you want to grease something up why not just use butter?

>>12753731

nevermind, just a 12 year old being a kid. carry on bubby. didn't mean to intrude on your puberty.

>>12753742
Thank you for being considerate, but tamari and mayonnaise is still the diamond standard that you have yet to incorporate into your daily dietary habit. I believe you can do it anon, I truly do

>>12753739

Do you have any idea how important oil hydrogenation was during the war? the DB 605 engine ran on hydrogenated oil. That's why they bombed Schweinfurt–Regensburg. To deprive the nazis of their oil.

>>12753751

I love dark brown piss smelling liquid made from soybeans that rot. I'll give it a taste.

>>12753764
You're taking a step in the right direction anon, may that one step turn into many
>btw game over

>>12753378
>can't understand a graph
>muh niggers ruined chicken wings
im not a fan of niggers, probably less than you but holy fuck control yourself

>>12753775

Didn't ghandi say the first step begins with a dick in hand? Something something. Go watch natural soybean extraction for soy sauce. No idea what that goofball sauce your talking about is.

>>12753778

"Niggers" are smarter than you are. Neil Degrass Tyson would be sad you existed. Idris Elba wouldn't care. You're just a garbage person who can't figure out why you're human filth. Sorry bro, you're just born into stupidity.

>>12753752
mayo isn't hydrogenated though just emulsified.

>>12753778

Where did you go white gimp? Your forehead probably says "My dad fucked my Sister". Am I right? You're a human gimp homunculus?

>>12752224
What if it was goremade?

>>12752216
It's bottom feeder sauce.
Especially when Amerifats dip their pizza in it.

>>12752671
How do you know this even a thing in England?
You're just making up shit to make Amerifats feel better about their eating habits.

>>12752735
> Hurr Durr Euros......

Heard of "taste", Amerilard?
A lot of the hate that Europeans get here on /ck/ is because what they eat, is not the "fast food" that Americans eat.
They tend to eat a lot more fresh veges (even in an omnivore diet) than Americans.
I am an omnivore from New Zealand that eats more vegetables than meat, I enjoy them both.

>>12752216
It's for white people.

>>12753461
based

>>12752710
cheese is lactose free

Any time ranch is used Bleu cheese would be better.

>>12752216
Because niggers bully white people, and white people are too cucked to exterminate them.

>>12753071
Both are disgusting and you should be ashamed

ITT

>>12752216
Hate = attention.

What came first? Ranch, or cool ranch?
https://youtu.be/a6rGUlVvVJ4?t=366

>>12752216
It's like a lifeless version of bleu cheese, to put it simply.

I pity the many self hating Americans on /ck/.

>>12753378
>57% of wings eaten with ranch
>Yeah, the commit 50% of the crime, and eat 57% of the hot wings, and are only 13% of the population.
How did you manage to get a famous stereotype completely backwards? Ranch dressing is the most white person beloved condiment there is.

>>12753378
>Do it like a white man.
I mean seriously, where did you even begin to have the retarded idea ranch was a *NON-* white thing? That's insane. Do you just go around calling anything you don't personally like "not white?"

>>12756352
black people most definitely eat ranch, you're thinking of mayonnaise.

>>12753788

You're absolutely right, I was thinking about margarine.

>>12754260
You yuropoors fucking line up when our fast food chains open. Lick my ass you ignoramus.

>>12756215
No one ever even thinks of you.

>>12756458
White people use both ranch and mayo and if you believe otherwise you're extremely out of touch with reality.

>>12752216
do americans really put sugar in their ranch?

>>12756792
not when they make it from scratch
most of the commercially available ranch dressings are full of HFCS and other sugars

>>12753335
>nearly 4/5 Americans eat chicken wings
As opposed to the picky ones that just throw away a significant portion of the animal.

>>12753378
>>12753479
>>12756458
Ranch dressing is the most popular condiment in West Virginia, Iowa, Idaho, Utah, Arkansas, and Oklahoma.
When the US states are ranked from highest white population to lowest, West Virginia is 3rd whitest, Iowa is 6th, Idaho is 11th, Utah is 18th, Arkansas is 25th, and Oklahoma is 30th.
Could not be made any clearer that ranch dressing is a white people predominant condiment of choice.

>>12752216
Finally, somebody willing to ask the important questions.

>>12756871
I am calling so much bullshit on that image. In no way in Coconut anything the most popular condiment in Minnesota.

>>12756981
It's probably from some bullshit Facebook group poll that had 200 responses and 8 choices, with some states being so poorly represented that the result is just one person's weird preference.

100% of these "infographics" are complete bullshit.
Its Buzzfeed tier clickbait and fake as fuck.

>>12756811
Before they were popular to be eaten as-is they were pretty much considered only good for making stock.

>>12757459
>complete bullshit.
>clickbait and fake as fuck.
No, it's just the results of condiment review rating and frequency by state. Actually a more reliable source than most others which would be survey based.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/foodnews/this-map-reveals-the-most-popular-condiments-in-every-state/ar-BBRZdbC
>From the number crunchers at product ratings platform Influenster, this new map claims to reveal the specific condiment that is most popular in each state. Specifically, Influenster's data team went into the back end of the site and analyzed over 50,000 reviews to determine which is the "most buzzed-about" condiment in each locale by weighing the ratings and number of reviews left by members in each state.
Also even if you still had some nitpick to make with that one there's the simple fact Hidden Valley (the brand created by the guy who invented ranch dressing) has sold more ranch dressing in the Great Lakes region than any other, and the Great Lakes region is significantly higher in white population than the rest of the US:
>>12756413

>>12752216
it's not delicious

>>12753378
The white man is a cuck you fucking faggot like you.

>>12758178
Coconut oil isn't a condiment, though. And I sure as fuck have never seen it as an option.

>>12753301

>Ocarina of Time was a bad Zelda game

Somebody would get the fucking pimp hand for that. I *will* admit that going back to single-stick after, like, twenty years was a monumental PITA, though.

>>12754260
>I'm an omnivore
All humans are omnivores since they have the ability to eat meat or veg/fruit. But then again you probably wish you weren't since it tends to scare away the sheep.

rabid fanbase that puts it where it doesn't make any sense and is largely comprised of disgusting, unlikable hamplanets

>>12752216
>Why does ranch get so much hate?
It's gotten lower and lower quality over the years. Restaurants don't make it from scratch like they used to. Bottled dairy based dressings have always been greatly inferior to the cold pack refrigerated jars like Maries or Litehouse, but on top of that, the migration to soybean oil over the years from more expensive and neutral flavors, or from delicious olive oil or from a cider or wine vinegar to a cheaper white vinegar, these changes gives the products are bit of a spoiled rancid aftertaste, or missing depths of flavor. Cutbacks in every way, is the problem. Ranch is a dairy dressing, like bluecheese is, but rather than delicious fresh buttermilk, it'll be made with a greater ratio of mayonnaise and powdered, aka lactose friendly, buttermilk or other cheats without milk solids and whey both. Instead of bright fresh herbs blended and used daily, it's dry dried, and they have gone way back on the amount of green onion and pungent garlic bite as previously done in years past.

Places that serve ranch where picky eaters dine who eschew blue cheese are obviously going to have the most mildly flavored version of ranch, such as for chicken wings or tenders.. Ranch should have the stinging bite of raw garlic, savory and salty tang of anchovy or worchestershire, and an abundance of green herbs.

There used to be another commonly excellent 'freshly made" restaurant dressing of the same era that Ranch started, the Green Goddess. That one really doesn't translate well to a cheaper bottled version. Some companies try to make it, but it's not the same thing in any way either.

>>12752480
Shit, her belly looks like a beanbag.

>>12753521
wtf
the easiest way to make buttermilk is take a half full bottle of full cream milk and shake it until butter chunks form. remove the pieces of butter and the milk is now buttermilk. true buttermilk is the byproduct of butter making.

The flavor is repulsive. If you want something good, make an aioli

>>12759265
Technically that's true, but it's missing the slight fermentation, because of pasteurization. This is the reason why storebought buttermilk is more like a kefir, impregnated with cultures.

>>12759319

what kind of human homosexual says aioli? It's garlic mayo. Stop being a cunt.

>>12753335
It's weird to me how blue cheese became associated with chicken wings in murica. I wouldn't expect burgers to like blue cheese at all, nor to have it with celery and carrots.

>>12759665
Blue cheese dressings have been fairly popular long before wings started being huge.

The apocryphal story is that the owner of a bar needed to feed her son and his friends after closing, so she chucked wings n a deep frying, tossed them in a mix of butter and hot sauce, then served them up with some stuff she had on hand, notably blue cheese dressing and some carrots and celery.
