What You Should Know

You’d spot this in the refrigerated dressings/dips section or tucked near packaged salads — the kind of jar you grab for veggie platters, sandwiches, or a game-day spread. It gives a familiar, nostalgic ranch hit while signaling modern, plant-forward positioning; the long list of isolated proteins, gums, starches and ‘natural flavors’ points to industrial formulation that creates a stable, creamy texture and long shelf-life.
