    i really like the Sabra but when I started losing weight, I switched to Safeway's Eating Right and get the Spinach and Artichoke kind. I add a teaspoon of organic chopped garlic to about a third of the container. I am kind of taking a break now because I was eating it so much I got tired of it. I'm sure I'll be back to it at some point!

    Different brands have different textures. If you have a good Meditterean place near you, they usually make a great homemade hummus. Roasted red pepper hummus is delicious. I like trader joe's hummus, they have a variety one you can buy and try three different flavors in one container. It took me a few tries and brands to end up liking it, but now i love it!

    There would be peace in this world if everybody just ate Hummus.

    Good, gooder goodness. It's just mashed up beans, usually garbanzo or white with garlic and such. Great on pita chips or tortilla chips...Think of it as the Mediterranean Bean Dip (as opposed to Mexican Bean Dip - Pinto).

    Check the ingredients on the Sabra products--I remember at some point noticing that some of their stuff had mayo in it, which totally skeeved me out because 1) it really shouldn't be there and 2) I hate mayo.

    I've been making my own hummus after discovering recently how easy it is to cook up dried chickpeas in the pressure cooker. Super cheap, keep out the nasty things like extra sodium, add in what you do like....
