I almost never get ranch dressing on a salad (blue cheese or a simple vinaigrette, please), but it's OK with buffalo wings.

Quote from: claws on Today at 09:41:25 AMWhy Ranch Dressing never found a culinary home in Europe:

European palate preferences lean heavily toward vinaigrettes (oil and vinegar).
Ranch is often viewed overseas as overly processed or unappealingly thick for a salad.
Variations of Ranch can be found in Europe, but it is almost always rebranded as "Cool American" flavour (notably on Doritos) or simply labeled "Sour Cream and Chives", which uses a more familiar culinary vocabulary.
There are salad dressings with buttermilk, but they use entirely different ingredients and spices than what is usually found in Ranch.

People in Virginia & The Carolinas feel the same way about barbeque.... Vinegar & pepper....
They consider Texas style to be ketchup.....

Dr. Pepper and Root Beer found a home in Europe. We even get Mountain Dew (without BVO). Peanut Butter has become a stable, also marshmallow fluff and Pop Tarts, but in a slimmed-down version (adjusted for European eating habits).

I haven't had ranch dressing on salad in ages. The american in me kind of misses it haha
