A few words about the nature of food we buy and hummus...

The other day I saw the local store had a "hip" over-priced hummus on sale and being lazy (and cheap) bought it...

When I got it home and gave it a try it was not really hummus in any shape or form. Not that it was bad exactly, but it simply was not hummus. Sort of the hummus niche of what Cheese Whiz is to real cheese. Which leads me to believe that there are a lot of people who don't really know what a lot of things are supposed to taste like.
