Not all ranch is created equal

The Bird - Mount Pleasant, Michigan

The Bird’s ranch = Store-Bought Sadness. Sour smell, worse taste. Hidden Valley confirmed. Onion petals deserved better.

RANCH REVIEWMICHIGAN BASEDSTORE-BOUGHT SADNESS

To be fair, our server was upfront and told me it was Hidden Valley when I asked about the ranch.

So no shocker here, it came, I smelled, I tasted, I frowned. The Bird is a local dive bar, beloved by college students for its cheap drinks and rowdy vibe, not its fine cuisine. Which is great, it knows what it is, and I love that for them.

The real heartbreak? Their onion petals were actually pretty tasty, which just made it extra sad that the ranch wasn’t pulling its weight.
