I feel like that’s a common trend with vegan food. Take a delicious food item and overuse it until it’s almost disgusting. I love hummus but I can imagine if I ate it all the time I would get sick of it. I’m like that a little bit with mushrooms, I love mushrooms but eating a ton of them makes them gross for me.
I think something sorta unique about hummus that makes it really popular is that it’s a vegan protein source that is served cold and can surprisingly substitute meat and cheese well. Like you mentioned about sandwiches, you can take out the deli meat and cheese and replace it with hummus and it still tastes delicious. Most vegan protein sources are cooked and served warm, or don’t taste well with garden vegetables (like peanut butter).
