What You Should Know

You'd find this 16 oz tub in the refrigerated dips section at Whole Foods or pulled from your fridge for a quick party platter, sandwich spread, or snack with veggies. The vibe is wholesome and practical — a comforting, slightly nostalgic Mediterranean-style dip that reads as a healthier convenience. The smooth, creamy texture and long refrigerated shelf-life come from blended chickpeas, tahini and added oil with a stabilizer/acid (citric acid), signaling a processed ready-to-eat product rather than an ultra‑industrial formulation.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from whole-food ingredients (chickpeas, tahini, lemon, garlic) but packaged and stabilized with oil and citric acid for shelf-life and texture, it fits the NOVA 'processed' category rather than ultra-processed.
