This Chikei Rick Chow, the dude that killed Cyrus? They found his other business and they out here with signs shutting it down. I’m so Proud of our youth!
A Black man created ranch dressing — and most people never knew.
Kenneth “Steve” Henson, born in Nebraska in 1918, was a plumber who cooked for his crew in Alaska. One day he mixed buttermilk, mayo, herbs, and spices… and ranch was born.
In 1954, he and his wife bought land near Santa Barbara and named it Hidden Valley Ranch. Guests loved the dressing so much they begged to take jars home. By 1957, stores were selling his dry mix. Orders exploded. Factories followed.
In 1972, Clorox bought the recipe and the name for eight million dollars. Ranch went nationwide. By 1992, it was America’s #1 dressing.
But the man behind it? Nearly erased.
Every salad, every wing, every fry dipped in ranch — that’s his legacy. He mattered. He was the blueprint.

@AlexMar31934563 I just learned that the NFL shop doesn't offer briefs to their fans like they do for boxers & boxer briefs... TBH, that pissese off because why the erasure of brief-wearing sports fans (& non-sports fans who just like the look/colours)?
@AlexMar31934563 ... fighting for men's right to maintain our modesty with characters print fabric, but here I am, mad that Joe Boxer has modernised & mad that Walmart gave up their novelty underwear (& DEI, so I can't even ship there ethically).
@AlexMar31934563 Some guys are fine with "childish" undies (I am), but in their preferred styles, which aren't always briefs. FWIW, I want "childish" undies in ALL styles for men (& women too, if they want)– superheroes, cartoons, ball patterns, polka dots, etcetera. I never thought I'd be ...
@men_are_human Best "life hacks" for men
1) pay attention to what women say when they think men aren't listening - this includes on social media
2) read at least this one book - a Saturday afternoon and evening well spent
