Oh,yes, next to Sabra the other brands are tasteless. I especially love their new spinach and artichoke hummus. It is great on naan bread or even Ritz crackers.

Where do you buy leaf humus?

The city I live in collects leaves in the fall, shreds them, and makes long compost piles. They turn them occasionally and by the next summer the stuff if a sweet-smelling, awesome mix. If it gets wet and sits, it smells like a swamp. $7 a yard plus delivery charge, so it pays to buy full loads.

When I finally started restoring my 64 Chevy last winter, my response to the Arizona boycott was to buy the parts I needed from Impala Bob’s in Mesa, I must’ve spent at least 3k, but just knowing I did my small part to p*ss off the left, PRICELESS!

I love Sabra hummus and now I like it even more. We are traveling to Egypt and Israel next month. I’m looking forward to trying hummus in the Middle East.

You will get the best hummus and falafel ever in those two countries. In Israel at least your typical falafel/shwarma place (joint) will have a multitude of condiments and add ons for your pita bread with the felafal or shwarma. In some places you pick and choose condiments from a bar of sorts. In others they slather it on for you. You should ask them what the shwarma meat is. It might be turkey instead of the beef or lamb you think it is. If you like olives you will find hundreds of different kinds

There is an Anthony Bourdain episode in Egypt that might be helpful to you

Your town has a great policy. That’s the kind of eco stuff I really like. Humus=gold. And global warming is BS

Where I live it is so hot that wood chips in a pile compost pretty quickly. People mulch with them and make compost (humus) with them.

Hey there, Islaminaction! Here's a great idea!



Maybe after you get your new camera, you could get your subscribers to chip in a dollar or two apiece and get yourself a case of Sabra Brand Hummus (Roasted Red Pepper Variety.)

Then you could take pictures of yourself eating it and post them on your blog. That would surely show those Mohammedans what for.



Their heads would most certainly explode!
