What does “Dorothy Lynch” mean

A sweet, slightly spicy tomato-based salad dressing created by Dorothy Lynch in St. Paul, Nebraska in the 1950s and now a pantry staple across the state. Nebraskans treat it as the default dressing, putting it on salads, fries, sandwiches, and even using it as a dip, and the brand name functions almost as a generic term. It is regarded as a hometown food identity marker in Nebraska and neighboring areas.
