Available in two flavor varieties—Original Ranch Seasoned Chicken Dippers and Buffalo-Style Ranch Seasoned Chicken Dippers — the new line pairs 100% natural grilled chicken with Hidden Valley Original Ranch dip.

June 4, 2026

Hidden Valley Ranch is coming together with Carl Buddig & Co. to launch a new, flavor-packed ready-to-eat snack: Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoned Chicken Dippers. 

Developed through a licensing partnership with Carl Buddig and Company, the new Dippers mark Hidden Valley Ranch’s first entry into the refrigerated protein snacking space, pairing the brand’s iconic ranch taste with convenient, high quality ready-to-eat chicken to deliver the flavor consumers love with the function they’re seeking.

Available in two flavor varieties—Original Ranch Seasoned Chicken Dippers and Buffalo-Style Ranch Seasoned Chicken Dippers — the new line pairs 100% natural grilled chicken with Hidden Valley Original Ranch dip, delivering a convenient, on-the-go snack with 15 grams of protein per serving. 

With no prep required, these refrigerated snacks are perfect for enjoying on their own or in wraps, salads or any dish needing bold, zesty flavor. 

The new line delivers on consumers’ protein needs and stands out in the refrigerated set. 

“Today’s active consumers want food that works as hard as they do, so we’re making it easier than ever for fans to enjoy the Hidden Valley Ranch flavor they love—anytime, anywhere,” said Matt Barlow, vice president of brand and commerce marketing at Carl Buddig & Company. “The new Hidden Valley Ranch Dippers deliver satisfying taste and convenience in the moments that matter — whether that’s a quick snack for on the go, post workout fuel or an easy topping for their favorite meals.”

Find Hidden Valley Ranch Dippers in the refrigerated section, available at select retailers nationwide.
