I have never tried it...I have been tempted to buy it, but I really have no idea what it is.

Great dip. Not greatest. That goes to anything buffalo flavored.

We just bought a huge $5 tub of the stuff from Costco and it was surprisingly good for how cheap it was.

Chickpeas, also known as Garbanzo beans.

Its pretty much Garbanzo beans (also known as chick peas), olive oil, tahini, garlic, and some lemon juice. Those are the main ingredients, however there are different variations (i.e. canola oil instead of olive oil... or adding cayenne pepper). It's pretty damn good. My mother is Turkish and makes it all the time.

Pita is my fave to dip, but pretzels do the trick.

I stick to pita chips or carrots.

Cool beans...I am drunk already, so I am going to pick up some pita chips and hummus. If it sucks, I am sending justincredible a bill for $12.

Nice, I bet she makes some good hummus.

A family friend made some for the 4th of July or Memorial Day and it was made with black beans as well. It was pretty good.

I've only had it once at a Greek restaurant here in town. I love garlic, but it was a little overpowering. I would be willing to try it again.

Smh. Make sure they don't charge you for the ice in your Belvedere and cranberry!
