Is left out ranch dressing okay to eat?
It depends on how long it's been left out.
Ranch dressing is a dairy product, so it can spoil quickly if it's not refrigerated. The USDA recommends that you refrigerate ranch dressing within 2 hours of opening it, and discard it after 7 days.
If you've left ranch dressing out for more than 2 hours, it's best to discard it. Eating spoiled food can cause foodborne illness, which can lead to symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.
Here are some tips for safely storing ranch dressing:
* Store ranch dressing in the refrigerator at all times.
* Discard ranch dressing after 7 days.
* If you're not sure whether ranch dressing is still good, smell it. If it has a sour or off smell, it's best to discard it.
* Never eat ranch dressing that has been left out at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
