Hummus. Apparently, according to the Guardian, natch, we are in love with hummus.
It is the beige dip that launched a thousand picnics, and Britons can’t seem to get enough of it. A survey has shown that 41% of us have a pot in the fridge – almost twice as many than any of our European counterparts. We get through £60m worth of the stuff every year. When did this exotic blend of chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice and tahini become a fridge staple?
God alone knows. Of course this is assuming that the “research” is actually true. All I can presume is that people have no taste buds. I’ve tried this muck and it will never, ever find a place in my fridge.
Sorry, but – Mmmm, Hummus.
Tastes like cold vomit.
I thought…. Hummus was something dead you threw on the compost heap….. like children, (AAARRRGGGHHH NEVER LET ONE CROSS MY DOOR! Little BASTARDS.) or dead cow guts, or something?
Now, let me open a vegie restaraunt when THAT is what I understand about these green slimey bastards.
You could have GREAT fun…. Alá “Leggie.”
Better still, throw the pigs in as well and call it an “Halal vegie restaraunt.”
THAT would confuse the gits!
The stuff’s so toxic it would kill the compost heap and everything in a ten foot radius.
I have no idea what this stuff is, looks like or tastes like.
And I intend to keep it that way – if only on the grounds that if The Grauniad approves of it, then it’s bad stuf…
Looks like cold sick, tastes like cold sick. The Guardianista approve because they would like us all to be whey-faced vegans.
I have to fess up here we DO have Humus in the fridge, but this is mainly because my stepdaughter is a Vegan and therefore in love with all things tasteless and beige especially chick pea based humus and it’s equally nasty and tasteless pal tofu.
It sits in the fridge like some sort of alien being mutating into god alone knows what, for something with so little taste it does smell really dreadful and thats before it’s gone off.
YUCK
