Sabra

I had a hummus discussion in the grocery store the other day with some guy who was buying the hummus on sale. He was not buying Sabra. I tried to tell him, but he just wouldn't listen. Then it occurred to me -- the blond hair, the freckles. Not a Jew. Jews know Sabra is the best hummus there is. Creamy, not tahini-tasting. Delicious globs of [insert flavor]. And, they have a new flavor, Sun dried tomato. I know it can be a bit pricey, but a grocery store like Albertson's sells it for $3.99 (versus King Super's $4.99). It's worth it, people. Do not scrimp on the hummus. I'm just sayin', I have my priorities in line.

Sabra in Hebrew means 'A Jewish person born in Israeli territory.' In Arabic, sabr means 'aloe', 'cactus', or 'patience.' And, perhaps only related in my mind, in Spanish sabroso means delicious. And that's what Sabra is. De-e-licious.
