For years, consumers have been creating their own creative condiment mashups and the food industry is just starting to introduce hybrid condiments to save people from having to interact with more than one bottle or jar. [Frank's RedHot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuffed-buffalo-crunchers) is putting its own spin on hybrid condiments with the Buffalo 'N Ranch Thick sauce, which combines all the heat of the brand's hot sauce with the creaminess and tangy taste of ranch.

The versatile sauce has the potential to be used on everything from tacos to macaroni and cheese bowls, cauliflower bites and potato salads.

At the same time the condiment is appealing to those who have been combining [ranch and buffalo sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidden-valley-ranch-fire-sauce) for years, the Buffalo 'N Ranch Thick sauce is novel to consumers who have never even considered such a combination.
