Tucson, AZ, September 30, 2026 —
Hidden Valley Ranch has introduced a new, limited-edition condiment for the Halloween season: “Spooky Ranch.” This unique offering features the brand’s signature ranch dressing with a distinct black color, aiming to add a festive touch to seasonal meals and snacks.
The “Spooky Ranch” dressing maintains the original Hidden Valley Ranch flavor profile that consumers are familiar with. Its notable black hue is achieved through natural coloring agents derived from fruit juice and cocoa. This approach to creating a colorful condiment for seasonal appeal draws parallels to past novelty food items, such as Heinz’s green ketchup, which was released years prior.
The limited-edition “Spooky Ranch” is currently available for purchase. Consumers interested in trying the black ranch dressing will find it exclusively at Walmart stores. The availability is restricted to this retailer for the duration of the Halloween season.
Further details regarding the specific ingredients used beyond the fruit juice and cocoa, or the precise duration of its availability, were not immediately provided. The company has not announced plans for broader distribution beyond its exclusive partnership with Walmart.
