    Hummus

    Is hummus allowed-- or should I know something?? The baba ghanoush hummus I got at the grocers said 2 tbl=3 carbs with 1 fiber and 2 sugars. Is it ok to snack on with cucumbers this week?

    Hummus is made from chickpeas. Are chickpeas on the Acceptable Foods List for Induction?

    And if you check the Carbohydrate Ladder in your copy of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution, where do chickpeas fit on the OWL Carbohydrate Ladder?

      Thanks for this and sorry for the late reply. I did not entertain the hummus this week and had my cukes with Caesar instead. I am down over 7 lbs and almost done with induction. I didn't realize chickpeas were beans... It will be a long time until we pick those up again...

        >>The baba ghanoush hummus>>

        Baba ghanoush is not the same as hummus.

        Baba ghanoush is made from eggplant.

        What were the ingredients exactly? It may have been fine.
