@micheline.maalouf: When colonialism touches food, this is what it looks like. Hummus (حمص) is an Arab word. An Arab dish. With Arab roots. It existed long before the state of Israel and no rebranding will change that. This isn’t a “fun fact” about chickpeas. It’s an example of cultural appropriation used to whitewash occupation. If you love hummus, love the people who made it #hummus #ArabVoices

Well actually it most likely derives from Aramaic… and guess which group of people spoke Aramaic and what language is one of its closest relatives 🤭

Why are people saying that the Hebrew pronunciation is correct? It's not a Hebrew word, and not an Israeli food
