Hidden Valley Ranch And Cheez-It Team Up For ‘Cheezy Ranch’

Hidden Valley Ranch and Cheez-It are teaming up to celebrate National Ranch Day on March 10. Together, they created a "Cheezy Ranch." In a news release, they described it as "Cheezy Ranch! Crafted with 100% real cheese and the zesty flavor of ranch."

The companies said in a news release that Cheezy Ranch is the perfect way to add a "cheezy ranch" twist and some "serious flavor" to your favorite dippable foods. They suggest drizzling it over a plate of nachos or using it as a dipping sauce for French fries or a freshly baked, warm, soft pretzel. "The possibilities are endless," they said.

Hidden Valley Ranch shared on Instagram, "We’re so excited to finally bring this to YOU - what are you going to dip first???" So naturally, people delivered with their dipping possibilities. One person said, "Chicken nuggets, for sure!" Another person shared that they would put the Cheezy Ranch on pretzels, celery, and mozzarella sticks. Someone shared that they've been dipping Cheez-It's in ranch for years.

Before the announcement, the brands teased people on social media with photos of Cheez-Its on foods like pizza and salad.

The new condiment will be available at Walmart and Kroger grocery stores nationwide for $5.99. The product will make its way to Walmart shelves in late March and Kroger stores in April.

In addition to Cheezy Ranch, Hidden Valley Ranch also announced that six new flavors will be available to consumers this spring. A spicy trio bundle will be available exclusively at Walmart. The new flavors include Garlic Ranch, Nashville Hot, Creamy Jalapeño, Spicy Hot Honey, Green Goddess, and Parmesan Ranch. The exact dates on when the new products will be available in stores weren’t announced.

Hidden Valley is no stranger to collaborations. Earlier this year, they teamed up with Burt's Bees for a limited-edition lip balm that sold out in minutes. They also dipped into the world of fashion by teaming up with Crocs in 2021.

What an exciting time for football. And with the Super Bowl around the corner, you might as well make sure you have your appetizers and snacks in order. Whether you're excited about the game, the insane commercials, or the halftime show, it's certain that most people will be chowing down on apps.

Last year, a study found that appetizers make up most people’s diets on gameday. Interestingly, 70% of people skip the entrée and stick to appetizers on Super Bowl Sunday. This study also found that 41% say they tend to overeat.

Another study found that more than half of people look forward to game day parties because of the food. Also, highlighted is that 74% of people plan to make food at home. Meanwhile, 26% plan to order from restaurants. Either way, there will be food.

Taste of Home compiled a list of what they consider to be the best of the best when it comes to apps. Their top five include an antipasto platter with meat and cheese cubes, pepper jelly hogs in a blanket, beef Wellington fried wontons, fruit charcuterie board, and ham and Swiss sliders.

There’s something for everyone from last-minute party throwers to ambitious hosts. If you're looking for something quick chips and dip is a go. If you're looking for something with a bit of pizazz, maybe try a quesadilla ring.

This year's Super Bowl will be held on Sunday, Feb. 11. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. EST. Whether you're tuning in for the game, watching for the commercials, or just want to see Usher's halftime show, make sure you have your snacks ready to go.

There are many game day apps you can add to the menu, from wings, dips, and sliders, to desserts, and breads. Check out these appetizers that will make watching the game even more fun.

Whether you're going store-bought or homemade, chicken wings are a definite crowd pleaser. They're easily customizable from a simple dry rub to a tossed-in sauce moment. And if you are trying to keep things somewhat on the healthier side, you can always bake your wings instead of frying them.

Nachos are a game-day favorite for many. You can go all out with toppings or keep it simple if you need to make something quick. The main ingredients include tortilla chips, cheese, and toppings. These toppings can be meat, tomatoes, black olives, black beans, corn, onions, among others.

Buffalo chicken dip features chicken mixed with your favorite buffalo sauce and cream cheese. If don't feel like cooking the chicken, you can always grab a rotisserie chicken. It can be paired with tortilla chips, crackers, or toasted baguette slices.

These are a budget-friendly option that can be made with ingredients that you probably already have on hand. It's a more effortless appetizer made with the crispy skins of a baked potato filled with bacon, cheese, sour cream, and chives. To make it more of an appetizer, you can opt for smaller potatoes.

This appetizer is like a miniature bite of comfort food. They're creamy balls of mac and cheese that are crispy on the outside and cheesy on the inside. And they are made with a few ingredients including pasta, cheese, milk, flour, eggs, panko, and seasonings.
