Not at all the bold spicy HVR Fiesta flavor I expected

I recently tried Hidden Valley Fiesta Ranch Thick & Creamy Ready to Eat Dip for the first time. My local grocer was out of HVR dry mixes and other dips (Super Bowl Gameday shopping). It was just alright. Not at all the bold spicy HVR Fiesta flavor expected. The consistency, texture and appearance were on point. I usually make my own dips using Hidden Valley Fiesta Ranch Dip Mix and will stick to this method. No more shortcuts because this product is a tad pricey compared to the mix.
