Hummus would undoubtedly last for a few weeks in the fridge, were it
not for the fact that it doesn't stay around that long in our house.
With lemon---and I agree with the faction that likes lemon in their
hummus---it's acidic enough to minimize growth of nasties.

Speaking of tahini... anyone noticed that the price has jumped
considerably? A few months ago I could get a pint jar from the local
organic food store for about $7. Bought a jar last week, it was $10.
A similar jump at the local Kroger.
