Ranch dressing has long been one of America’s favorite sauces, with Google searches for “new ranch flavors” spiking over 250% since November 2023.* Sweetgreen’s take on the iconic sauce has also captivated a following of its own.

With fan-favorite Green Goddess Ranch at the center of this launch, we’re making it easier to start the year with flavors you love.”
