    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?

    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

    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!

    Yes- this!

    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

    I make my own. My favorites are Garam Masala and garlic (substituiting half the olive oil wth lemon juice) & Lemon Cilantro (replacing all of the olive oil with lemon juice).

    I make my own, it is insanely easy:

    1 can garbanzo beans (chick peas)
    Juice of 1 lemon
    2 tablespoons tahini (sesame paste)
    Garlic (as much as you like, I heap it in there, lol)

    Add all ingredients to food processor. Add in enough water to get the consistency you like. Voila!

    This is much healthier than the store-brands, it has no oil so has much fewer calories.

    All the ones I've had, have had a very strong garlic taste to them, most must include it

    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.

    Yep, and the only one I really like is Wal-Mart's Marketfresh roasted red pepper hummus. Stacy's Simply Naked Pita Chips or Triscuit's Thin Crisps Quattro Formaggio are both good with it also.

    I am not a fan of Sabra. The texture is weird and they use soybean oil, which has no place in hummus. (Though I just found out they make a lemon hummus, so I MIGHT have to try it.) You are in Atlanta, so please, get thee to a Trader Joe's. Their Mediterranean hummus is like crack. I also like their Tomato & Basil that someone else mentioned.
