Ranch Dressing’s Wild Journey from Alaska to Airports | Indianapolis News

from Indianapolis News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

TSA’s got a new headache: ranch dressing. International travelers are packing big bottles in carry-ons, leading to chugging jokes and security woes. But here’s the wild backstory—Steven Henson, a plumber in ’40s Alaska, invented it to feed hungry crews. Later, he sold the ranch, kept the brand, and Clorox bought it for $8 million, launching the bottled version we all know. From Alaskan construction sites to airport security lines, ranch dressing’s rise proves how small ideas can explode in ways nobody sees coming.
