Hummus!

This was my lunch today from Diet-to-Go. It's one of my absolute favorites: Hummus with warmed pita bread, string cheese and citrus.

I love this stuff and had no idea until today what it is. According to Wikipedia, hummus is chickpea paste.

According to the Two Sheiks web-site, both Plato and Socrates wrote about the benefits of hummus.

Whatever it is, I like it -- even if it does look like a pile of glop.

  • That's not a diet it's a punishment. Go mow your yard instead and have a burger.

  • Welcome to the world of Arab cuisine! I recommend trying Kous-kous, Tabouleh, and Kibbee. Stuffed grape leaves are also another favorite.

  • Hey Silverblood,

    The punishment reference was to the amount of food eaten not what type. I love Hummus.

    Look before you shoot,

  • Silverblood -- I get a lot of cous-cous every couple of weeks as well. But that's something that my mom had fixed occaisionally when I was a kid, so it wasn't new to me.

    I've heard of tabouleh, but kibbee is a new one.

  • Pete, I reread it, and I still failed to see where you explicitly stated that you were not knocking on Arab cuisine. Maybe mention it that way next time instead of saying "That's not a diet it's a punishment."

    To me and anyone else looking at that, would think you're dissing that kind of food. So don't bark at me Fuggo. lol

  • You guys crack me up. I'd eat it even if I didn't know what it was. As long as it doesn't look/smell like poop, and it was to be completely dead.

    Now you've gone and made me want a diettogo plan. You jackass. :P
