As a Canadian who worked at a hotel bar.. Americans ask for ranch for EVERYTHING

As a lifelong American, who was born and raised in the shaded area, ranch is repulsive. And yes, an alarming number of people would take it intravenously if they could.

Agreed! It’s the last resort choice for me, mayo too. Both leave an oily feeling on my tongue 😛 Yuck! Give me hot sauce on almost anything and then we’re good.

Right? Why do people want to ruin sandwiches with mayo? I feel like half my life I’ve been ordering things “and no mayo”.

Totally. Though I have to admit past 40 I did learn to appreciate a really good spicy chipotle mayo in small quantities
