WishBone: the Italian dressing born in a Kansas City restaurant in 1948 — that never set foot in Italy!

In 1948 in Kansas City, Missouri, Phillip Sollomi — WWII veteran — opened the Wish-Bone, an elegant family restaurant in a Victorian mansion. His mother Lena, a Sicilian immigrant, made a family Italian vinaigrette passed down from Sicily. Customers loved it so much they wanted to take it home. Sollomi let them fill their own bottles. Then he started bottling it in a carriage house behind the restaurant in 50-gallon barrels. In 1952, he sold the restaurant to focus entirely on the sauce. Wish-Bone Italian Dressing is today America's #1 Italian dressing — born in Sicily, made in Missouri. Today owned by Conagra Brands. My American Market brings it to you!

American dressings vs French vinaigrettes — a different world

In France, vinaigrette means oil + vinegar + mustard. In America, "dressings" are a world of their own: creamy, spiced, sweet-tangy, rich in herbs or cheese. Not just for salads — Americans use them as dips for vegetables and wings, sauces for sandwiches and wraps, marinades for grilled meats. WishBone is the reference range with Italian Dressing (the founder), Ranch, Caesar, Thousand Island and more.

WishBone tip

WishBone Italian Dressing is an exceptional chicken marinade! Pour 4 tablespoons of dressing over chicken escalopes, marinate 30 minutes, then grill on high heat. The result: herb, garlic and vinegar marinated chicken of incredible flavour. The American cooking trick millions of families have used every week since 1948!
