Today is National Ranch Day.

If you love ranch, you aren’t the only one. Americans consume 100 million bottles of ranch dressing annually, which is worth around $1.7 BILLION. And the average person consumes ranch 15 times a year.

Americans were recently surveyed on their favorite condiments, and were given more than 20 condiments to rate and rank.

30% of people say they “love” ranch dressing . . . 35% “like” it . . . 18% don’t have an opinion somehow . . . 7% “dislike” it . . . and 8% “hate” it.

60% of people say they usually have ranch in stock at their home . . . and 7% would rank it as their “favorite” condiment, even over ketchup and peanut butter.

And get this: You know how some people carry special condiments with them wherever they go? Like how Beyoncé says she carries hot sauce with her on the go in the song, “Formation”. Well, 16% of the people who do that say they carry their own RANCH in a purse, bag, or backpack, in their car or in an office drawer.
