Hummus Could Change Your Life
Who knew the answer was right in front of us the whole time?
All my life I thought that being healthy meant abandoning your taste buds and shovelling food down your throat with a clothes pin on your nose.
All my “healthy” friends got by with boiled vegetables and brown bread, a meal that left them unsatisfied and irritable.
The name of the game seemed to be misery, so I figured I’d just eat delicious junk and enjoy my short life while I could.
But then I discovered hummus… and I couldn’t believe my tastebuds.
What is this stuff??
Hummus seems to be an unholy monstrosity of impossible tastes and textures.
It’s smooth and creamy, rich and flavoursome. It tastes how I imagine pate was suppose to taste, instead of tasting like duck vomit. (I really don’t like pate).
I knew I liked hummus before having any idea what was inside, so I really expected it to be full of dairy. I expected cream, lots of oil and possibly meat of some kind.
