      Really, these are great for most things and a dirt-cheap hygiene option too. Use them for potato chips, cheetos, cheeze-its… everything where you’re tempted to lick salt/powder/sugar off of your fingers. Did we really learn nothing from the pandemic?

    shiii

    I just throw the nuggets in a large mixing bowl. Toss in a couple tbl of Gochujang, 1 tbl toasted sesame oil a tsp of honey, some sesame seeds, 2 tsp garlic powder, green onion, thin shallot, and a nice healthy dose of kosher salt. If I’m feeling fusiony, i’ll swap the salt with Sazon seasoning.

        Ends up sick because instructions didn’t specify using clean dishes. Blames everyone else and cites it any time anyone tries to get him to do something for himself. This does not turn out well for him once his parents pass away.

        There would be more green text.

        Incidentally, I made that post before lunch and thought about it so much I went upstairs and made it :) Added cotija cheese and a big spoon of salsa.

        I’m now partially comatose :P

    id say most of the time whatever you are dipping is the secondary thing, you just want to eat the dip but eating it by itself is too overwhelming.

    the right ratio of salsa to nacho is 2 parts salsa 1 part nacho so

    2:1 ratio (by mass)

    That’s why knowing physics and densities matter. It allows you to multi-dip without contamination.

        some people have their lizard brains react very poorly to the amount of sugar and fat and salt that’s inside modern hyper palatable food. i don’t think many people necessarily want to get fat enough to be at risk for various diseases, it just happens to them. and there are also people more at risk for impulsive actions or less control over their actions, like people with adhd and autism.

        a lot of the information on nutrition out there is also either pure propaganda or meant to muddy the waters, so sometimes for people who aren’t very into nerding out over things it can be difficult to understand what good nutrition might be like.

      I was sitting in a Walmart parking lot in rural Iowa many years ago waiting for my inlaws to finish shopping. An older couple, probably early 60s, starts unloading their groceries into the station wagon next to me. The woman grabs a bottle of ranch from one of the bags, takes a long swig, screws the lid back on, tosses it into the trunk, and continues unloading the cart.

      It was the most American thing I’ve seen outside of a jail cell.

      Diplet detected.

      Ranch is merely the primer for the second coating of whichever sauce you prefer.

        I’ve found that basically all commercial ranch (hidden valley) is mostly just soybean oil and doesn’t taste like shit.

        A local pizza joint to me has custom made ranch that is unironically amazing. YMMV.

          Maybe this is just the American within me speaking, but I unironically enjoy comercial sauces. If it was disgusting, no one would buy them.

          Homemade ranch (or at least, mixed up on site for restaurants) can be really good. There’s a bar near me that serves a great ranch with their buffalo wings. The thick, globby stuff in the bottles never lives up to expectations.

            Nothing wrong with thick, if it’s got good flavor. I wish I had gotten Po’ Folks (a southern food restaurant chain local to me) ranch dressing recipe before it went out of business during the pandemic. It actually had identifiable chunks of minced carrot etc. suspended in it.

            I miss it so much, along with a few other things from that place, that I’m almost motivated to try to track down somebody who used to work there and remembers.

                Got a link? I found one AJC article with a recipe for the tuna salad, which uses the ranch dressing as an ingredient, but it doesn’t include a recipe for the dressing itself.

                “That” ranch recipe, from that specific restaurant, is noticeably different from any ranch I’ve had anywhere else. Random southern-style ranch recipes aren’t what I’m looking for.

          I love ranch sauce.

          This is not about ranch sauce specifically, but i found a good channel (FoodParables) which has a video for making your own ranch seasoning at home. If it’s of interest. Linked on the channel name in brackets

        A lot of the places use to much mayo when they mix and it ends up mayo sauce. I’ve heard good things about cutting down the mayo with sour cream though.

      Its almost the same as the fascination the Japanese have with mayonnaise, honestly.

      I guess its some kind of cultural palette thing.

      I know mine does it, but it could be a feature of the 4chanX extension? I haven’t used 4chan without it in years. It’s not direct quotes, but you click the number to see the post inline.
