Soccer fans have bought a lot of ranch dressing lately, but there isn’t a verified total number reported in the available coverage. What the reports do show is that the World Cup ranch craze has become big enough for TSA to remind travelers to pack it in checked bags, and for major outlets to describe fans carrying bottles home and even “chugging” it outside security.

Quick Scoop

  • The trend is real and widely reported across World Cup coverage.
  • No source I found gives a precise count of how many bottles or gallons soccer players or fans have bought.
  • The best-supported takeaway is that ranch dressing has become a viral souvenir for some international soccer fans during the tournament.

What’s known

The most specific reporting says fans have been stuffing ranch into carry-ons, prompting TSA warnings and even retailer tie-ins from Kraft. ESPN also described ranch as showing up in memes, reels, and fans’ luggage, which suggests the obsession is broad but not numerically measured. ABC News similarly reported that international fans have “gone crazy” for the dressing, but again without a purchase total.

Bottom line

So, the honest answer is: we don’t have an exact amount. The available reporting only supports that soccer fans have bought and packed a lot of ranch dressing, enough to become a viral World Cup side story.
