Marie's® Creamy Italian Garlic Dressing 12 fl oz Plastic Jar
What You Should Know
Marie's® Creamy Italian Garlic Dressing is a refrigerated, jarred salad dressing presented in a 12 fl oz plastic jar with a screw-top lid, found in the refrigerated dressings/condiments case of the supermarket—usually beside other premium refrigerated dressings, dips and deli salads. It reads like a gourmet shortcut: a rich, creamy Italian profile built on soybean oil, cultured dairy (buttermilk and sour cream), egg yolks and a garlicky herb blend. Occasion-wise, it lands on grocery lists for quick weeknight dinners, weekend brunch salads, pasta salads for potlucks and as an everyday marinade for grilled chicken or roasted vegetables. The brand positions itself as a slightly upscale, flavorful alternative to mass-market dressings—targeting home cooks who want bold, restaurant-style flavor without extra prep. Packaging and labeling lean into indulgence and convenience: “creamy,” “garlic,” and “gluten-free” appear as accessible health signals, but there are no organic or minimally-processed certifications; the jar doesn’t use child-oriented graphics and reads as adult-friendly gourmet pantry fare. In plain terms, this is a commercially manufactured dressing: blended and emulsified to a stable texture with ingredients like xanthan gum and refined soybean oil to maintain consistency and shelf life. Sensory notes: silky, moderately thick emulsion with bright garlic and herb aromatics, tang from cultured dairy and vinegar, and a smooth, coating mouthfeel that clings to greens and pasta. The typical ritual is a quick shake-open–drizzle over salad, spoon into a bowl for dipping, or toss with hot pasta for instant flavor. It fits squarely into American grocery culture as a convenient, flavorful finishing touch for everyday meals.
