Cedar'S Organic Hummus Original
What You Should Know
Cedar's Organic Hummus Original is a 10 oz refrigerated tub you'll typically find in the deli or refrigerated dips section of the supermarket, shelved alongside other spreads like guacamole, tzatziki, and packaged baba ganoush. Its organic label and modest tub size make it a grab for shoppers looking for ready-to-eat Mediterranean-style dips for casual gatherings, weekday lunches, or snack-focused grocery runs. The brand leans into a natural, health-forward positioning: organic ingredients, simple ingredient listing, and an artisan-Mediterranean vibe that appeals to health-conscious millennials, young families, and shoppers seeking plant-forward proteins. Packaging is straightforward — a clear or printed plastic tub with a resealable lid — projecting convenience and freshness rather than kid-focused gimmicks. Label claims emphasize "organic" and recognizable whole-food ingredients (steamed chickpeas, sesame tahini), creating a strong health halo while also noting a short list of functional additives like citric acid and guar gum for texture and shelf stability. In plain terms the product is a prepared hummus: cooked chickpeas blended with tahini and oils, strained and stabilized for consistent creaminess — more processed than homemade but not an industrially reconstituted product. Sensory notes: a creamy, slightly grainy mouthfeel with a silky olive-oil sheen, mild garlic and cumin warmth, and a pleasant tahini nuttiness. Rituals around it include scooping with pita or carrots, spreading on sandwiches, or ladling onto grain bowls. Its convenience, organic credentials, and familiar Mediterranean flavor profile make it a pantry staple for quick, wholesome snacks and light meals.
