Grocery store Ranch Dressing that taste Restaurant Quality??

There's some adamant dressing lovers on here. But if we don't like Blue cheese, does that mean we shouldn't eat Buffalo Chicken?  That seems a little narrow minded to me.  I'd imagine most of us know that traditionally Blue Cheese is served with hot wings, especially if we've ever watched the Food Network.  But they'll also tell you that Red Velvet cake should have cream cheese frosting, when I've found it to go well with Caramel and Vanilla Buttercream.  Different strokes for different folks, ya know.  We are all going to eat what we want with whatever we want.  Pointing out that the OP is just wrong about her selection based on your experiences with a local treat seems odd. I get that people are passionate about food but it seemed like there was a tone to some of these posts.  If I am wrong, I apologize. I found the first one odd but thought maybe they were trying to be informative and genuinely thought OP did't know.  But as others pointed it out afterwards, it just felt strange to me I guess.

Oh for crying out loud...It was a comment that was made. But yeah no eating wings if you don't use blue cheese...  Oh and blue cheese is served with all wings..mild medium hot extra hot.  There was no "tone"...SMH

Here in Canada, the Irresistibles line from Food Basics/Metro has a delicious buttermilk ranch dressing. I was never a real fan of ranch until I tried this and now it's my favourite.

Honestly, I think they're the same.  I just change how I make them if I want dip vs. dressing, but I use whichever packet I happen to have on hand.

I HATE with a passion, the taste of Mayo.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the taste of homemade Ranch dressing, made with the packed of Buttermilk Ranch mix, 1 cup buttermilk, and one cup Hellmans mayo.  I love it so much I think I could drink it!  LOL  And I cannot begin to convey my dislike for Mayo. .... So give it a shot.

For me - it must be Hellmans. I also buy two packets (also must be Buttermilk ranch mix). I add one full packet and probably a quarter of the second packet.   Use real liquid buttermilk when mixing it up.

Mix it up several hours or a day before for best flavor.  

I could sit down and eat an entire bag of baby carrots dipped in this stuff.

My favorite restaurant ranch is for Wingstop. My DS and DD worked there. They make theirs. It is a ready made form Sysco. Made with buttermilk. I will normally buy it by the pint. BUT I have been making my own Ranch because I can't stand any store bought ones. I use the Pioneer Woman's recipe and played around with it to our liking.

Yeah it has to be Hidden Valley Ranch dry BUTTERMILK recipe, not the regular one...so like someone else said a tiny bit less than a cup of mayo and a little more (tiny bit) than a cup of Buttermilk.

So easy..and really good if you like ranch..no comparison to bottled or the non buttermilk kind!

Try Kens....our local steakhouse uses it and we like it.

For those who make homemade ranch dressing, how long can you keep it? We don't seem to use a bottle of dressing very quickly, so I'd worry about spoilage.

Another fan of Ken's. DH and I were out to dinner once and I mentioned to the waitress how good the Ranch dressing was, and she said they use Ken's. I'd never heard of it before then, but that's all I use now (and, the Greek dressing is awesome also--my second favorite).

I did Pin the Ranch recipe linked above because I'd like to try it at some point.
