The four flavors of uBu's Hiker's Hummus are situated on a wooden cutting board, next to a loaf of delicious sourdough bread, cucumbers, pita chips, and a bowl of the hummus reconstituted. The cutting board is on a blue check tablecloth on what appears to be a stump. All of this is situated against a boulder and various bits of foliage.

We make freeze dried hummus you can enjoy anywhere.

Enjoy hummus on the trail, in the treetops, or on the playground. We make hummus that doesn’t need to be refrigerated and is lighter to transport. That makes it more sustainable and better for the planet. 

It’s made in small batches from great ingredients. Then it's freeze-dried. Just add water, mix, and enjoy!

Hiker's Hummus

Vegan Journal gets it!

Hummus for hikers was our first thought, but our freeze-dried hummus really is for anyone who needs a healthy, plant-based snack and doesn't happen to be standing next to a refrigerator.

Traveling by air? Ask the flight attendant for some water and pretzels, mix up a pouch, and you'll feel like you're getting away with something!

The word is getting out...

  • "This hummus is SO GOOD! I’m so excited to have a healthy option for snacks in trail. Going to take some to Isle Royale and share with friends."

    —Alycia G.

  • "The perfect hiker's hummus! Bought for hiking the Long Trail in VT - family member loves the variety and said it's super tasty! Great seller and super fast shipping - thank you so much!"

    —Kara F.

  • "Tried them at PCT Trail Days and was surprised at how good it was. Glad I bought one of each flavor and will be buying more for our 2024 hike."

    —Craig

You’ll find Salsa Macha—a fierce chili oil—on all the best tabletops in Veracruz, Mexico. Our Macha Chili Oil is a tribute to this fiery condiment. It’s a tasteful melange of dried chili, pepitas, almonds, herbs, and other tasty things that you can add to anything. You'll wonder how you lived without it.
