  • I just found a new (to me) version of Ithaca Hummus at Publix. Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Sea Salt is perfect for my bagel and I also dunk vegetables in it for extra protein. I personally would like them to use just a little less lemon juice, but it’s not overpowering.

  • I know everyone loves a super smooth and silky hummus. I prefer one that still has a little texture. Ithaca hummus is very smooth and this has great flavor. It’s definitely spicy. I think I prefer homemade though. I put a lot of lemon and use a high quality olive oil. I like this one too. Good as a sandwich topping.

  • This hummus has such a good flavor! The hummus has a smooth creamy texture that’s a great consistency. Its unique taste is something we started craving in my household. Fortunately we were able to find it at Costco so it was easy to stock up. It's great for snacking with pita. The package is nice to eat out of and easy to store.

  • The hummus is fresh and tasty with a thick texture. A little expensive but I was able to find some at costco for a great deal. Overall, I'm not buying this exclusively but definitely enjoy it when I have it!

  • One of my favorite snacks is bell peppers dipped in hummus so I always keep hummus on hand. I wasn't sure if I would like lemon garlic hummus so I kept passing Ithaca by in the supermarket until I saw Ithaca had an "everything bagel" flavor. I love everything bagel seasoning so I grabbed this one. It is delicious. The hummus has a thick, creamy consistency that was miles better than the other brand of hummus I had been using. I will eventually give the lemon garlic flavor a try, but for now, I'm loving the everything bagel flavor.

    A thick, creamy, flavorful hummus that spreads well and is reasonably priced.

  • Tried both ithaca hummus and their salsa and both are great. The ingredients are clean and taste is great too. Their black bean hummus is great for taco bowls or burritos when I’m too lazy to prep beans!

  • Ithaca Hummus makes so many varieties of really tasty hummus! I have really enjoyed all of the varieties that I have tried (lemon garlic and French onion). I'm on a very tight food budget so I definitely get these when they go on sale!

  • This is the best hummus I've ever had, the freshness can not be matched. One taste says it all. The lemon beet and lemon dill are my favorites. Red pepper is really good too. The Graza olive oil hummus is my new to go. The EVOO elevates the plain hummus. Love it.

  • The lemon dill one is my favorite and it's always the first thing I look for at Whole Foods. I'm slightly biased because I have a bunch of friends who went to Ithaca, so this is always fun to bust out at parties and picnics.

  • Love the texture and taste of the hummus. I like how it is available in my local grocery store.

    The price point is a bit high, but I feel it is worth it compared to the other brands since the quality is a bit superior.

  • Ithaca Hummus is hands-down the freshest, most flavorful hummus I’ve ever had. The ingredients are super clean, and you can really taste the difference—bright, tangy, and perfectly creamy. It’s amazing as a dip, on sandwiches, or straight off the spoon. Every flavor I’ve tried has been a hit. Definitely a five-star staple in my fridge!

  • Three stars. The hummus products are really thin and bright flavored. I think that Ithaca is much better decribed as a spread. Its great for sandwiches and salads. If you are looking for a super rich and thick hummus, ithaca might be too light and fresh for you.

  • Their lemon beet hummus is my favorite. So tasty and there is something so pleasing about eating something so pink.

    Kind of expensive for its size, I have to be mindful and try to ration it so that it will last longer.

  • This is my ol' faithful when it comes to grocery store hummus. Reliably decent quality, with good (not too whacky) flavors. Good consistency, a little grainy/chunky relative to actually Middle Eastern hummus that has that airy, whipped quality, but I think that's just the name of the game when it comes to processed hummus.

  • Delicious tasting hummus with clean simple ingredients. I love the variety of flavors they have. This hummus is on the pricey side.

  • I'm not a hummus person but I eat the lemon dill flavour with a spoon. It is THAT good!

  • A great hummus brand! I find the flavors to be really fresh and authentic. The texture is nice and creamy, as well. My favorite flavor is lemon dill. The price is slightly high but not cost prohibitive.
