At first, I never stirred it because I thought there was more of the deliciousness mixed in and the toppings were just a bonus… but then when I realized it’s just plain hummus underneath I started stirring and never looked back! Spread the wealth!

I never stir. I am greedy and want to eat all the yum in the middle for myself. I will try the stir method next time.

STIR!!! Then you have a tub of yumminess! My hubby hates it when I do that though because he thought it looked nicer before mixing. This is the same guy who gets mad at me when he puts everything in the salad and then I toss it b/c he had layered everything to look pretty…. yup…. love my crazy hubby. 🙂

I dislike the idea of stirring because I prefer the texture of topping on top of the hummus. Consistency bores me, so why would I want all my hummus to contain the same amount of topping? I don’t eat all the topping at once, but I’ll scoop carefully to make sure some topping is in as many bites as possible until the topping is gone.

On a related note, I just outed myself for always eating hummus right out of the container… People who visit my house, I hope you’re not reading this. And I promise I never double dip, at least!

I have never even thought to stir it! I eat all the ‘goodies’ first and then finish up the rest. I’ll have to try stirring it next time : )

I just recently saw one of my roommates stirring the Sabra Roasted Red Pepper Hummus and I was floored! Before that, I always used to eat around the sides first and then save the middle part of the end! It was my favorite. Now, I stir it all together and it’s SO good. Wow..I can’t believe I spent this much time talking about hummus…

if it’s flavored hummus the rest is flavored too (at least in my experience) so I don’t mix.

i never stir – i just assumed i should dip a little of the plain hummus and then dip a little of the middle goodness

i’m methodical in distributing the goodness, but i definitely don’t want it mixed together.

I’ve thought of it, but never did it. I do however eat the outside stuff with a bit of inside stuff on each cracker. I guess that’s along the lines of spreading the yummy center with the whole tub.

I don’t eat a whole lot of hummus (should eat more because I’ve found at least one I really like) but I stir a lot of things. I especially stir things like sour cream because they get watery and yucky when not used–the stirring tends to transfer over to other things. I had Greek yogurt once–the kind with the fruit at the bottom–and I had to stir it to mix everything. It was gross otherwise. (Still not a fan of Greek yogurt, though my dad eats it a lot.)
I’d probably do both and see which way I preferred. 🙂

Well that makes a lot of sense, but I still kind of like getting all the good stuff first.

I eat the center goodness for sure! When I make my own, I add lots of extra olive oil and when that’s gone I add some more : )

I save the goodness for last!

We always buy the supremely spicy one and stir it up.

I’ve always mixed first thing. Never thought not to:) The yummy goodness is all the way through!

I love the jalepeno and cilantro hummus from TJ’s. I usually get 2 servings of taking a dab of the stuff in the middle out of each tub, then I have a serving or two of plain hummus. I think it would look gross all mixed together.

I, too, just eat the center goodies straight-up!

I always stir 😉

the thought of stirring has never occured to me! the first 4 or 5 scoops are all the goodies, then i sklowly eat the rest. although i can see how some people think stirring might make sense, this will remain a stir free household!

I never stir!

Also, this post and its replies deserves one big and loving #shitfoodiessay 😉

I always stir it! Haha, I never figured that some people didn’t 😛

The first time I saw someone stir it, my mind was blown. Genius.

Always stir!

I don’t the rest of the humus isn’t just plain- it is also flavored with the “topping” that is placed in the middle. The topping is just there for presentation and a litle extra fun!

I am firmly in the no stir camp! However, I CHERISH the center and get extremely upset when the bf plunges head first into the center with a chip!! He says that I eat my hummus in a very OCD like manner, but whatever works! I like to dip around the outside, take a little bit from the center, eat, and repeat!

If you were not meant to stir it, the extra ingredients would be packaged separately. If you were meant to stir it, they would have mixed it for you at the factory.

No, you do neither! You dip your chip through the extra ingredients to get at the delicious hummus underneath. That can only be the correct method of enjoying such a delectable flavor combinations.

The first few I got I would scoop from the outside to the inside getting a little of the goodstuff with the first few bits. It was when I got the spicy one that I stirred it up because one bite of just the center melted my mouth. Then I thought to myself, maybe it’s meant to be stirred all the time. Seriously, who knew?
