Let’s Get Sexy with Ranch

Dipping in ranch is another thing that makes people crazy. Like pineapple, it has to be about something more than pizza. Pizza used to be such a regional thing, and then it exploded, going from a dish made by and for Southern Italian-American immigrants to a worldwide cultural phenomenon in one generation. The people who grew up thinking of it a certain way couldn’t comprehend its explosive evolution. So, there’s this reactionary view, a longing for a return to the status quo—strong feelings not only about what pizza should be, but what it should not be.
