After drinking bars dry and getting their first taste of American ad breaks, foreign World Cup fans have found a new obsession: ranch dressing.
The creamy condiment has become such a hit with international visitors that the TSA is reminding travelers that bottles of ranch dressing belong in checked bags.
In an Instagram post on Wednesday, the TSA poked fun at travelers’ newfound love of ranch dressing while highlighting its carry-on liquid rules.
One image in the post told travelers to “avoid chugging your ranch outside security” because airlines will check larger bottles.
Another image read, “Days since the last airport ranch incident: 0.”
The agency also used the post to spell out its rules for carrying sauces through security.
“Are you kicking around the idea of flying home with your favorite dip? If you’re traveling within the US, make sure to keep your carry-on sauces to 3.4oz or less and place any larger containers in your checked bags,” the agency wrote in the post caption.
Several brands were also quick to join the conversation in the comments. Among them was Hidden Valley, the brand widely credited with creating ranch dressing, which wrote, “I approve of this.”
According to TSA guidelines for carry-on luggage, liquids must be in containers of 3.4 ounces or less, and all containers must fit inside a single quart-sized, resealable bag. Containers larger than 3.4 ounces need to be checked, even if they aren’t full.
