Alpo Posted July 7 Posted July 7 You suppose they're too lazy to do this? Or just no one has told them this exists? There is video after video online showing them drinking it straight out of the bottle, and filling a suitcase full of bottles of ranch, and it getting confiscated by TSA because there's more than what - an ounce and a half? So I just went and looked to see if the original packages were still available. They are. You can get a container of 84 packages of hidden valley ranch dressing mix - just add buttermilk - for $34, on Amazon. And these people are, apparently, filling their carry-ons with bottles of ranch. 2 Quote
Brock Posted July 7 Posted July 7 (edited) you can get it in usa from amazon, can you get it in scotland from amazon? Can you get the same ingredients in Scotland to make it yourself? Usually "from a mix" is just not the same. Edited July 7 by Brock 1 1 Quote
Rye Miles #13621 Posted July 7 Posted July 7 Some girl from England said they had ranch in Europe at some stores but she said it tasted like herbs and garlic. It’s nothing like the ranch she got here! 1 1 Quote

I prefer Ranch dressing that is made from the packages. Like Red Beans & Rice it tastes better if left in the frig. for at least 24 hours. The only problem is finding buttermilk. Quote

There is buttermilk in Europe, but it may vary by country, and is usually thinner than American "cultured" buttermilk. Or they could use kefir (which makes fantastic "buttermilk" biscuits), or thin out yogurt with some milk. Quote

Eggs I think I stuck to size O. Vanilla is probably the stuff made from woood pulp. Edited July 7 by Brock Quote
Pat Riot Posted July 8 Posted July 8 I have had British and German mayonnaise. They’re both an insult to the name. I am sure their Ranch and or the ingredients for Ranch just plain suck over there. 1 Quote

In countries which are members of Interstate Council for Standardization, Metrology and Certification: Russia, Belarus, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Georgia, and Turkmenistan eggs are sorted into five categories by mass:[8] Category Mass range per egg Highest (В) > 75 g Select (О) 65 g – 74.9 g First (1) 55 g – 64.9 g Second (2) 45 g – 54.9 g Third (3) 35 g – 44.9 g Looks like that would be the equivalent of a jumbo US egg. "The following egg masses including shell have been calculated on the basis of the USDA sizing per dozen: Jumbo 70.9 g 2.5 oz. Ex Lg(XL)63.8 g 2.25 oz. Large (L) 56.8 g 2 oz. Med (M) 49.6 g 1.75 oz. Small (S) 42.5 g 1.5 oz. Peewee 35.4 g 1.25 oz." 3 Quote

Alpo Posted July 8 Author Posted July 8 That egg carton says they are jumbo. It does not say they are size O. 1 Quote
Jack Spade Posted July 8 Posted July 8 The reason they don't have Ranch dressing in Europe is because most of the ingredients (dies, flavor enhancers, preservatives, etc) that are in commercial Ranch dressing are not allowed to be sold to consumers in European countries. They don't allow their citizens to be poisoned by their food. Quote
