Hummus For All of Us!

The purpose of this blog is to test a theory: Hummus does in fact go with everything. The roots of this theory come from the seminal movie, You Don't Mess With the Zohan. In what is sure to have been an existential comment of the common ground that we all share as humanity, the characters in the movie, particular the titular Zohan, proceed to put hummus on everything. Fried fish, celery, reading glasses... well it is a lot of stuff.

So this became a bit of a joke between me and a friend of mine. We would recall the movie and have a bit of a chuckle over the shared experience. Then one day I am at an office party. There is BBQ chicken, cheese puffs, pretzels and hummus. In a move of bold daring, I try the hummus with the cheese puffs; not bad. And pretzels and hummus is an obvious combination. Then I go for the coup-de-grace: hummus + BBQ chicken. My friends thought I was crazy. I thought I was crazy. But gosh-darn it was it not a delicious combination. The sweetness of the sauce mixed well with the hummus. The moisture of the chicken meat was kept intact as it was rent asunder between my incisors by the hummus.

It was a transcendent experience.

So now, I am on a quest. A mission that may just change the world. To try everything with hummus and see if I can disprove my hypotheses. This blog will document my findings.
