Jericho Creates Great-Tasting Food That's Good For You


LOS ANGELES, CA, July 9, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Finally the best hummus has a name: Jericho! What does Jericho have that other big names don't have? They have the healthiest possible product available. Jericho Foods Company consists of three lines of authentic Mediterranean Dips: 18 flavors of hummus, 8 variations of eggplant spread, and 7 robust garlic spreads.  Rather than using fillers such as oil, flour, and butter, Jericho products are garbanzo bean and tahini based. They are mixed in small batches and taste tested through a 3 step process where, if the product isn't up to par, it never reaches the shelf, thus bringing you creamy, old-world recipes that taste like home. Full of Mediterranean flavor, Jericho produces no trans-fat, gluten free, cholesterol free and non GMO kosher spreads.

If you're looking for a classic hummus with a twist you can try the hummus with cilantro and jalapeno or hummus with pine nuts.  For a dip that keeps your chips begging for more, try the eggplant salsa. If garlic is you're preferred flavor, Jericho's garlic spreads are a healthy alternative to Mayonnaise for any sandwich - try a basil flavored original garlic spread or a garlic pesto spread to give your sandwich extra flavor! All 7 garlic spreads make a perfect pairing to any grilled chicken or BBQ beef.  Jericho flavors are guaranteed to meet any palate's challenge, even your grandmothers!

"It was important for us to bring a product that was not only healthy and delicious, but tasted as fresh and authentic as if it came directly from grandma's Mediterranean kitchen" says co-founder Ziad Janah.
