It is the deliciously romantic HOUMOUS, of course!
Which is not how my corner shop sells it...

Oddly, the OED lists "hummus" as the headword, with only "hoummos" as an alternate spelling.

Gawd, I didn't even include that in the poll, even though I'm sure I've also seen it spelt like that.
Can we go to Istanbul meze when I am feeling better?

Why must you make me choose??! I prefer to alternate inconsistently between two or three different spellings...

The FSA wouldn't give you a choice. You should see them on yoghurt. Or yoghourt. Or yogurt. Don't even start on "fro-yo"...

I feel strongly that it should have a double M so the first U isn't pronounced as in 'mucus'.
