I passed this by many times, kind of afraid of what it might be like. The slightly green color is not the most attractive thing ever.
But my worry was for naught. It doesn't have much of a distinctive soybean taste or aftertaste. The most different thing about it, compared to TJ's plain hummus, is that it seems to have more tang from lemon. Nina and I ate about 3/4 of a tub of it with chips as an appetizer before dinner.
Will I buy it again?
Maybe. It was good. However, I'm fast becoming a hard-core fan of the line of exceptionally good hummus varieties made right here in Asheville by a small company called Roots. I'll still try other things sometimes to continue my exploration of the whole category, but most of my hummus purchases are likely to be non-TJ's.
Nina's View
I like this very, very much. It's wonderfully lemony and the pale green
color is sort of nice once you make your peace with it. I will happily eat more
of this.
