OT: I'm actually pretty impressed with Costco's Middle Eastern food selection

I've always been a big fan of Sabra's hummus. Got some at home right now actually. But really, when you think about it there aren't that many options for store bought hummus. Whatever, I like it.

Sabra's is a good brand as far as grocery stores go. I'll try to pick up some Woody's hummus when possible.

If you're ever on Michigan Avenue, swing by the Jerusalem Bakery - the exterior is less than appealing, but great food - hummus is tasty.

I was surprised how good the Med foods are from Whole Foods. Their lentil and tabouli salads were legit tasty.

Seconded. And I'm pretty sure the owners live in our 'hood, Bob, in Duffy Daugherty''s old house.

Eating a lot of hummus means you fart like a camel.

Middle Eastern food is great!

Shut up dummy.

You can't go wrong with the $5 Costco chicken.  All they need is a drive through.

Sabra's Greek style hummus is my go to

We just got Zaytoon in H-Town. Place is lit.

Oh and store bought hummus is garbage just like Salsa.

The Garden Fresh line has a few good options for store-bought salsa.

All I need now is something to make me piss like a race horse to cover both ends

Many good Middle Eastern restaurants around here.  Two of them about a mile from work.  Got carryout from one for lunch today...medium tabouli salad with chicken.  $8  So much food could eat only half of it...had the rest for dinner.



Going to hit the other one tomorrow.  They make an awesome lamb cheeseburger.
