- Well, I have to say, this was an interesting lens. Most of it is in the video form which I didn't think was what lenses were about. Ik thought it would have been interesting in narrative form.
In my Greek/Armenian culture tahini is a staple. Hummus is the product of the tahini and the chick peas, and it's no big deal if one doesn't add tahini to the hummus. I should write my own lens!

- Egyptians add equal parts of vinegar and lemon juice to their version of tahini. I like both the Greek and Egyptian versions very much. Great lens!

- I love the name of this ... Tahini! I'd heard of hummus and actually rather like it or just plain old chick peas on my salad. We recently had some kind of hummus dip -- I'll bet it was Tahini! 5*****
