It's International Hummus Day...

[Uncle Bob]

...just in case you needed to know that.

[Sid P]

Just when you think you’ve heard it all…

[jayjordan]

AKA “Chickpea Remembrance Day”. 😀

[Huskee]

Lol

[Purc]

Please don't forget that today is also NATIONAL Apple Pie, Crouton and World Cocktail Day. Plus National Frog Jumping Day !
Let's Party!

[Uncle Bob]

The mind boggles...

[surfdog]

Well, seeing as I probably won’t be home from today’s gig until well after 9pm…I’m thinking that world cocktail day is the only one that I’ll get to “celebrate.”

[bbqLuv]

Why wait for today?

[dubob]

...just in case you needed to know that.

And WHY would you think we needed to know that? Are there any REAL uses for it in a BBQ world? I think not?
😂

I make a mean smoked hummus, and often smoke garlic and peppers even for my non-smoked hummus. You can also make a rub with it that works good on poultry and fish. I've never done it, but it supposedly also makes an alternative for sauce on pizza (you won't ever catch me doing that)

[Mister C]

What do you mean, here I've been waiting on a Meathead WSM hummus recipe. Dreams crushed!

[Draznnl]

I have some delicious smoked garlic hummus in the fridge.

BTW, more inportantly, May is National BBQ Month
June is National PBR month. -- Just kidding, but it should be.

Let's do a Hum along, ready? Hum, Hum, Hummus

[Duanessmokedmeats]

True story that happened to me several years ago…
I was having lunch at a Mediterranean restaurant. An older couple (him 80s, her 70s) came in. The husband got a table next to mine while the wife ordered at the counter. When the food came they had the following conversation.

Him: Is this bean dip?
Her: it’s hummus
Him: it looks like bean dip
Her: it’s hummus
Him: it smells like bean dip
Her: it’s hummus
Him: what’s hummus?
Her: pass me a napkin.

Chickpea is a legume, so technically he was correct.

[FireMan]

I love the stuff meself. That and drizzled in olive oil with some Pita bread, mmm good.

[fzxdoc]

Absolutely!

[Huskee]

So is anyone gonna hummus a tune about National Hummus Day? (I won't quit my day job)

[jfmorris]

The more I have hummus, the more it makes me think of those cans of Frito Lay bean dip I used to buy to dip my Fritos in back in the 70's and 80's. I've not had that stuff since then, but guess they still make it!

I buy big containers of roasted red pepper hummus at Sam's Club as one of my few contributions to a "Mediterranean Diet". However, they stopped selling pita chips at Sam's. Go figure! I gotta stop by Walmart on the way home and get a big bag of Stacey's pita chips. Or I can stop at Publix and pay $2.50 more for the same bag...
