Exotic foods that you like

[project dragon]

Samosas! Though I wouldnt exactly call it exotic...

[iLDuce]

I worked in a supermarket for 4 years with labels on lots of different food

And I'm a business partner in an international restaurant that specializes in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food- my duties of which consist of research on distribution and importation of specialty foodstuffs.

None of which changes the fact that to my knowledge hummus is not marketed as "humous" in any English speaking country.

So your point?

I say "humous is a correct spelling", you say "no its not. I prove you wrong and say I used to sell food, you say you used to sell food on a bigger scale specialising in foreign foods and as a result their pronounciations, despite the fact we've established Houmous is a correct spelling. That doesn't make you right, that just makes you really bad at your job

The answer to this is different spelling, as easy as that.
Color -> Colour, which one is right? Both.

That was apparent from the dictionary definition, I just got pissy when ilduce took the time to try and over-rule me in the catering business which only reinforced the point that he really should have got it right. The fact still stands, humous (hummus) is Godly

[Tone]

Penicillium Roqueforti

[Wil]

I never knew anyone else shared my passion for eating humous.
I especially appreciate the stuff from Marks and Spencers, you pay the bit extra, but it really provides that extra kick.
