https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hummus
"Hummus (also variously spelled hamos, houmous, hommos, hommus, hummos, hummous or humus)...
...
The origins of hummus are unknown. It is one of the oldest known prepared foods and has been used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine for thousands of years. Plato and Socrates both noted the nourishing benefits of hummus (hommos in Greek), which has been a part of Greek culture at least since classical times.An ancient Egyptian recipe calls for wine vinegar instead of lemon juice, which did not arrive in the Middle East until about the 8th century CE."
Oh and hell yes to the apple butter, Nutella is the **** as well.
