What You Should Know

You'd spot this jalapeño hummus in the refrigerated deli aisle at Whole Foods or grab it while assembling snacks for a picnic, game night, or quick work lunch. It reads wholesome and a bit adventurous—the creamy, spicy bite feels homemade—while the short ingredient list and a few industrial touches (citric acid, dried spices, pressed oil) indicate light processing that preserves texture without heavy stabilizers.
