Whenever I have "hummus" stuck in my head, I always want to sing out the "hummus" part (and I sometimes do so without even realizing it). So I'll just be sitting or standing wherever I am randomly yelling out "HUMMUS!", to the outsider's perspective. I've gotten some weird looks...

    What the heck is hummus? is that a Scottish dish?
  • intodeepintodeep Posts: 7,249
    I am probably wrong but...

    I think it is more middle eastern like a spread made from chick peas?? does someone else know for sure?

    I think you are thinking of Haggis (that is scottish) they sound the same but are very different.

    It's not a "song" really; but it's a hidden track on yield; comes a couple minutes after "All Those Yesterdays".

    It's kinda like some old Russian song. I'm not really sure "hummus" is what Ed is yelling; but thats what the board decided on.

    Back in the day, you used to be able to find Chick Peas on a Salad Bar. Nowadays, you hardly every see Chick Peas.

    You're absolutely correct, actually! Hummus is a wonderful spread made from chick peas that goes perfectly on a nice warm piece of pita bread. The best kind of hummus I've ever had is that Athenos black olive hummus.

    Okay, I'm really hungry. I think I'll make myself some. :)

    Does anyone else think the yield secret song had a bit of a hidden reference, namely the secret song on Nevermind, that many bootlegs have what sounds like Kurt singing 'Hummus' clearly?

    I love hummus!!! I don't particularly like other Lebanese dishes especially taramawhatsa....and other gunk.....but I searched a recipe for hummus on the intaweb....and it's on my fridge door.....under my son's first painting......it's got four cloves of garlic (crushed)......chick peas and some lemon juice and salt....I eat it with pita bread straight from the blender....I haven't used my blender for anything else since I bought it......I love hummus!!! (I didn't realise how easy it is to make......like these ingredients.....you would never know they could make something so delicious.....)......I get cravings for hummous!!!
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
