Many travelers, like German fútbol fan Freddy, who find themselves fawning over all things American, are stowing ranch dressing bottles and Cheez Whiz in their carry-on luggage. Last week, TSA reportedly threw out at least 500 bottles of condiments.
TSA even made a humorous post on Instagram about the ongoing issue: “If you’re visiting for a large sporting event & you happen to discover RANCH while you’re here… pls pack it in your CHECKED BAG on the way home. Thank you.” They also asked that travelers avoid “chugging your ranch outside security.”
Some companies are taking advantage of this trend, advertising ways to bring ranch onto carry-ons.
Kraft introduced “Kraft TSA Compliant Ranch, a travel-friendly way to bring the taste of America home” on Friday. Confirming this product is not a gag, Kraft said they were working on the “real thing.”
“It’s about time,” TSA responded to the post, adding a teary-eyed emoji.
Foreign travelers continue to gush over what most Americans consider “small things.”
“What’s happening?” one traveler remarked as he walked past the parts and accessories aisle. “I can get bread, milk, and an air rifle.”
Another traveler said Costco was probably the “best store I’ve ever been to.”
A post on X said that World Cup Europeans’ love for America is a “Nightmare for liberals who hate America. Decade of hard work gone down the toilet.”
The United States is one of three countries hosting the World Cup alongside Canada and Mexico. Over 5 million visitors from around the world are expected to visit during the global event.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
