thoughts on ranch outside the US? do people scoff or just not care??

imo it's the best dipping sauce for tendies

when I was in belgium for example they have like 20 sauces at takeaway places but no ranch
same with UK
they even rename cool ranch doritos to "cool original"
it's as if they want to hide the existence of ranch for some reason...

but they don't really have a replacement for it at all

it's usually mayo, ketchup, some mixture of those, and maybe various kinds of peppers

but imo they don't go with tendies as well

what kind did you have?

my real theory on this topic is that good ranch spoils quickly because it is mixed from buttermilk. you need a critical mass of ranch enjoyers to ever justify making it. so anyone outside the US is unlikely to ever bother or even taste the real thing.

meanwhile it's easy to find "american style" BBQ, mustard, etc. because it's shelf stable

(shelf stable ranch is nasty btw)

Yeah, we don't really have "ranch" outside of American stores. I only had ranch for the first time a few years ago. I liked it. Idky Americans who try to act worldly claim to hate it. If you're eating something that ranch can be added to in the first place, y'ain't fancy, my dude.

I'm american but I just had this Lebanese spread that in my opinion, blows ranch out of the water. And this is coming from a bonafide ranch consoomer over my whole life. Ingredients were very simple, raw garlic sunflower oil salt and lemon juice. The brand was "Grill" and it was 5 bucks for a little squeeze bottle so it's time to make some at home and have it often, shit was so cash

it's an herb/spice mix you mix with buttermilk and mayo. this is the original brand of ranch most restaurants use

Salt, Monosdium Glutamate, Garlic (Dried), Modified Corn Starch, Spices, Onion (Dried), Maltodextrin, Less Than 2% of: Natural Flavor, Guar Gum, Calcium Stearate.

interestingly, it was purchased by Clorox (cleaning products). so it's not surprising the bottled versions and reformulations taste fucked up.

How else would it be used other than "knowing about the world?"

Garlic aioli is more popular in Australia, you can occasionally find ranch at American chains or as a salad dressing for fat bogans. It was nice back in the old days for dipping dominos chicken kickers but nothing at dominos has been good for at least 10 years now.

Norway is the real ranch country.

It's called "sour cream dressing" but it's basically the same. The big difference is that people have higher dairy standards so restaurants have to make it fresh.

Freshly made American ranch is at least as good, but much harder to find since people are happy eating that shelf stable canola oil and xanthan gum shit.
