[quote name='cindersphere']I hate ranch and will never use it again. I have noticed that ranch spreads. First on salads, then with chicken or fries, then with pizza then bam your entire plate is ranch with a little bit of food on the side. People go too far with this stuff. It is like the crack of the food market.[/QUOTE]
This. But I simply don't like ranch dressing. I do, however, dig the hell out of bleu cheese dressing, although the only thing I put it on is chicken wings.
Salads typically get a balsamic vinaigrette for me.
Ranch is a strange phenomenon (as you asked in the OP), where some people don't just use it, but
ing SLATHER everything that goes in their maw in it. So their not eating a slice of pizza, but a pizza-shaped slice of ranch dressing. Or so it appears.
I like spicy, robust food and sauces (Famous Dave's celery-seed heavy BBQ sauce can suck a dick, though). That said, ranch is such a potent substance that it takes over everything it touches - you can't taste the pizza, just the ranch. It doesn't add to the flavor of food, it covers over it. I don't get the ranch phenomenon, but it is kinda appalling to watch it in action.
