Ok, so I bought hummus because I see some of my MFP pals eating it. I totally should've asked this question before shopping because the Roasted Garlic flavor was NOT a wise choice :sick: My breathe is now stinky and I'm suffering through this awful after taste :frown:

If you're a fan of hummus, what are they tasty flavors?

    Pretty much all of them. But, if you're new to hummus, the 'original' in a lot of the brands is quite good. red pepper is yummy as well.

    Roasted Red Pepper is by far my favorite! I've tried the garlic before and I hated it. But I eat the red pepper one almost daily. The Sabra Red Pepper is the best!

    The Athenos Spicy 3 Pepper!! YUM!....but they'll all give you stinky breath. Make sure you have a toothbrush or plenty of gum on hand...

    I recommend roasted red pepper hummus, so good. I also really like Tribe's forty Spice hummus and Sabra's Spinach and Artichoke hummus. Not too into garlic hummus either.

    Roasted Pepper or Spicy Pepper. I think all hummus has garlic.? Garlic is great, if everybody you meet in your life, had it for dinner last night also ;)

    The normal flavour or one with herbs and lots of lemon in it are my favourites

    Roasted Pine Nut definitely! I love garlic but most of them are just way too much! I did try mixing the garlic hummus with the roasted red pepper and that's pretty durn yummy!!!

    Red Peppers seems popular! I'm nervous though. Maybe I can sneak a taste test prior to purchase :wink:

    For me, a long time hummus person, I just find the Sabra SO much tastier (and therefore perhaps better for a newbie). The reason it tastes better: more oils. Which is NOT so great since we're watching calories, but it's still not really bad, and a VERY satisfying tasty snack. 70 calories for 2 tablespoons. For me, almost all of the Sabra flavors are good.

    The other brands are a more traditional, more chick-pea-y hummus. But not as DELICIOUS.

    Best wishes! (splurge on hummus on wheat thins, or spread it on celery or a romaine lettuce leaf :love:

    If you're very new to hummus you might start with "original", or the pine nut flavor. They're both very mild flavors.
    I'm actually planning to "make my own" this weekend!!

    Did you buy the red lid Sabra hummus? Every one of their flavors is disgusting. Trader Joes makes an awesome roasted garlic hummus. Their original is also yummy, but for lowest cals try tomato basil hummus dip.

    I really like Emerald Valley Organics hummus, too.

    Thank you all so much for the recommendations! I bought the Athenos brand. Next time I'll give Sabra a try...

    I recently bought an edamame hummus and a white bean hummus. Both are very good and have slightly different flavor than traditional.

    plain hummus is delicious but recently i discovered caramelised onion flavour from tesco, OMG AMAZING!!! definitely recommend it. however, its not the lowest of calorie options for snacks etc, altho it is pretty healthy. everything in moderation as the saying goes :-) x

    I love all hummus! So delicious.
    Sabra makes one that has olives in it and it's my most fave!

    The garlic one is awesome as long as you don't plan on kissing anyone LOL
