What You Should Know

Sabra Hummus, Roasted Garlic (10 oz) is a familiar refrigerated dip found in the deli/refrigerated prepared foods aisle, typically shelved next to other hummus flavors, container dips like tzatziki and baba ganoush, and near pre-cut vegetables, pita and refrigerated spreads. It fits into quick grocery runs for weeknight dinners, snack-stocked game-day carts, or picnic and potluck shopping lists when shoppers want an easy, shareable appetizer. The brand positions itself as approachable Mediterranean comfort with mass-market appeal — marketed toward busy families and millennial shoppers looking for plant-forward convenience; packaging calls attention to flavor and shareability more than specialty credentials. Labels often emphasize flavor variety and convenience rather than organic certification; this product is not presented as a specialty organic item and does not use child-focused branding. Visual cues lean on Mediterranean imagery and wholesome-sounding descriptors, creating a mild “health halo” around chickpea protein and sesame tahini. In plain language, this is a commercially prepared hummus: whole ingredients like chickpeas and tahini are blended with oils, acids and a preservative in a factory before being packaged. Sensory notes: smooth, creamy texture with a pronounced roasted garlic aroma, a mild tang from citric acid, and a slightly oily mouthfeel from soybean oil; red bell pepper flecks add color and subtle sweetness. Packaging is a squat plastic tub with a peelable lid — a ritual of opening, scooping with pita or carrot sticks, and returning to the fridge. It’s positioned as a convenient, shareable staple for casual entertaining and everyday snacking.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from whole ingredients (chickpeas, tahini) but industrially processed with added oils, citric acid and a preservative (potassium sorbate), it fits the NOVA 'processed' category rather than minimally processed or highly ultra-processed formulations.
