Summary

Ithaca Craft Hummus Classic scores 65/100. The ONLY hummus in the EWG study with NO DETECTABLE glyphosate. Non-GMO Project Verified with a clean label and no preservatives. Uses expeller pressed high oleic sunflower oil — better fatty acid profile than regular seed oils (higher in monounsaturated oleic acid) but still technically a seed oil, which prevents a higher score. Cold pressed lemon juice is a premium touch. The cleanest hummus in the study. NOVA 3.
