So how much is in a ranch packet? Two tablespoons of deception, five cents worth of spices, and a lifetime of flavor. It’s the cheapest way to make your food taste like you tried, when you really didn’t try at all.
Next time you tear open one of those little foil envelopes, remember: you’re not just adding powder. You’re adding history, chemistry, and a little bit of magic. And maybe, just maybe, a tiny apology to your arteries. Pass the chips.
