I make two types of hummus, one with fresh garlic (for eating right away)
and one with cooked and/or roasted garlic. The roasted garlic one often has
a slightly more bitter/sour aftertaste than the fresh. Perhaps that's the
cause of it in the stupidmarket brand you tried? I find that roasted garlic
makes a wonderful hummus but the difference between that kind of hummus and
the fresh is enourmous.
