FOOD: Hidden Valley RANCH Selling Treat-Sized Packets for Halloween???

Hidden Valley RANCH Selling Treat-Sized Packets for Halloween???

Here's what to hand out on Halloween if you want to be the WEIRD one on your block . . .

Hidden Valley Ranch is selling treat-sized packets of RANCH DRESSING to give out to trick-or-treaters this year.

Each packet has a half-ounce of ranch. That's half of what they consider a normal "serving size." (So, just enough to dip a few bite-sized Kit Kats in.)

They're selling them in bags of 30 on HiddenValley.com. Each bag costs $20, plus $7 shipping. So almost a dollar per packet.

Even at that price, they'll probably sell out. So get your orders in now . . . or you could be the COOL house on the block and hand out full bottles of the stuff.

They're also selling an official Hidden Valley Ranch costume, so adults can dress up as a bottle of ranch dressing for $40. They don't have kid sizes. 

(Here's a photo of the individual packets, the bag, and the costume. In other news, Nerds-flavored candy corn is also coming for Halloween this year.)

Messy or ingenious? A TikTok user shared a "ketchup hack," where you tear a packet length-wise, and then dip your fries into the packet.
