FAQ

How does Dorothy Lynch compare to other dressings nutritionally?

Let’s put it this way: no MSG, no cholesterol, and no trans fats. The fat, saturated fat, and sodium levels are lower than a lot of those so-called “light” dressings. And our Light & Lean version? Even better. Plus, it’s gluten-free, so our celiac friends can enjoy it.

Our Sauces

It is! As of 2025, all of our recipes are made with beet sugar.  We don’t use any animal products in our recipes, and this change brings us one step closer to our commitment to more thoughtful sourcing.

Tomato soup, soybean oil, vinegar, sugar, spices, and a little magic.

Our Sauces

Right where she belongs—Nebraska! Every bottle is made and bottled in Duncan, Nebraska (population: 388, and probably half of ‘em have Dorothy Lynch in their fridge). From there, it’s shipped all over the country, spreading Midwest magic one bottle at a time.

Our Story

Loved by Families Far and Wide

We’ve used Dorothy Lynch for over a decade. There’s no substitute for its one-of-a-kind flavor. It’s the backbone of our coleslaw, the base of our shrimp cream sauce, and a dipping sauce for our famous testicles.

Perfect, fresh, delicious, and it got here super quick. As a Colorado transplant now living in the Deep South, getting Dorothy Lynch isn’t as easy as I would like, but hooray for the internet! Thanks for getting this tasty dressing to me in next to no time. Yum. 🙂

Growing up in Nebraska, Dorothy Lynch is a household name. The flavor doesn’t fit in the same category as other salad dressings. It’s great on salads but don’t stop there, you can use it on your meat (esp. pork) & anything else that needs extra flavor. You can find many recipes using Dorothy Lynch, just check it out on the internet, you’ll be surprised & thankful you gave it a try.

I grew up in Nebraska where this hails from. It is very popular there and I grew up using this. While back in the state recently I dined at a restaurant that had this among the dressing choices, so I ordered it having long forgotten about it. Halfway through my salad, I picked up my phone, opened the Amazon app, and sent 3 bottles to my father in AZ for Father’s Day. He’d forgotten about this stuff too and loved the gift. So then I ordered some for myself.

I have loved this dressing since I was a child, and a family member used to bring it to family gatherings from the Midwest. I was so happy once the manufacturer started shipping it with Amazon. I order four, 32oz bottles three times a year.

Best salad dressing. It is a little taste of home.

This dressing really enhances the flavor of anything you use it on.

A friend introduced us to this salad dressing several years ago, and we have used it ever since.

I love the fact that I am from Nebraska and still get to enjoy this dressing while living in Michigan. I love this dressing.

When I moved from Nebraska I did not realize what a luxury Dorothy Lynch was! Now when friends try it, they add it to their shopping lists.

Dorothy Lynch is very popular in the Midwest! It’s made with tomato soup, and it is phenomenal! I live in the Southeast and had to order through Amazon to get it – it’s that good. This will become your go-to “French-like” dressing!

This is like a cross between French and thousand island, but not exactly. That is the closest I can get. I absolutely love this stuff. Won’t eat a salad unless I have Dorothy! Will take my own bottle to restaurants. Nothing compares or beats this.

Dorothy Lynch Home Style salad dressing is a personal pleasure at our dinner table.
