    IDK why everyone is saying they’re nothing alike. There’s definite similarities. But they’re different enough that you should at least try hummos yourself to see if you like it.

    Also, nota bene: If you tried peanut butter in Europe, it’s very different from the peanut butter in North America.

      Because they’re nothing alike.

      Peanut butter has a buttery texture, hence the name. Hummus does not.

      Beyond that, the flavors are completely different.

      I dislike hummus (and that’s putting it mildly), but really like peanut butter. They’re that different.

        Crunchy peanut butter with skins and no sugar is kind of similar to hummus. Sweetened smooth peanut butter isn’t similar at all.

        IDK how you’re making your hummos that it’s not ending up buttery, but you’re missing out.

        Look, they’re both legume patés that you spread on sandwiches. They both pair best with an acidic counterpoint. They both taste great with lettuce, or celery. I’m not coming out of nowhere with this.
