What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the refrigerated deli aisle or on a party platter — a ready-to-eat creamy dip for crackers, veg trays, or sandwiches. It gives a wholesome, convenient vibe: familiar and comforting without feeling indulgent, and the smooth texture comes from blended chickpeas, tahini and added oil; the short ingredient list and presence of additives like citric acid point to a commercially prepared product rather than a homemade batch.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4
