Why do they only put that little dab of roasted red pepper in the middle of hummus at the stores? That shit should be half the container. (lemmy.world)

You can buy pre-made hommos and it can be alright but I know what OP is talking about and it has nothing to do with hommos. I listed all the ingredients that belong in it, nothing else does. Now next time you are in the shop and you buy that monstrosity they call hommos just go and check the ingredient list. Why is there sunflower oil in it? Why sugar? Sure as hell vinegar does not belong in there. What kind of spices are in there and why? Who told you to put fucking pumpkin or pesto on it? It does not belong there. I will die on this hill to make sure you understand that putting all that shit in hommos is the middle eastern equivalent of putting pineapple on pizza.
