Back to EpisodesHummus: Britain's New Everyday Staple
Description
Hummus, once an exotic treat, has become a British staple, now part of the official inflation basket. With annual spending reaching £170 million, its as habitual as bread or milk. From Waitroses initial stocking in 1987 to Tescos 18 varieties, hummus has evolved. Brands like the £25 kitchen blender startup now worth £24 million, produce up to 100 tons weekly. This shift reflects a more global UK diet, with Middle Eastern flavors going mainstream. Health benefits and versatility in usage contribute to its popularity.
