Taste Kitchen - Hummus

Taste Kitchen:

Joseph's Hommus Tahini, $2.99

"Tart, not bad. Decent texture. My favorite -- mild and possibly uninteresting, but clean flavor."

"Mmm. The real stuff. Good tahini flavor."

"It's good -- simple, with subtle flavors, some tang; well blended."

"Creamy and mellow."

"Creamy, but not particularly distinctive flavor."

"Rather mundane; nice herbal finish."

"Lemony, but no other distinctive taste. Real industrial quality."

"First thing that comes to mind . . . cardboard."
