Both are pastes made of mashed beans (peanuts and chickpeas are beans.) They also have a similar nutrient profile and are both used for similar dishes.

No, but they are related. They differ because only hummus and peanut butter are used as condiments/dip as opposed to being eaten alone.
Bean dip or eating refried beans with chips or tortillas is not unusual at all. In fact, dipping tortilla in beans is basically eating hummus with pita.
Allow myself to introduce… Myself.
PB straight up is a great snack. They even sell little packets of peanut butter to be eaten by itself out here. I’ve also been known to eat the left over hummus with a spoon after all my pita chips are gone.
Are you sure you’re not just confused about those single serving peanut butter packets they leave on the table at brunch places to spread on your toast 😅?
No. These are sold right next to the chips and popcorn in the snack aisle. Justin’s Nut Butter is the brand. They have more than just peanut butter, but also almond, hazelnut, and other mixed flavors.
I believe you, but I’ll admit the first thing I thought of was the little carousel of jams and peanut butter at a breakfast place, haha.
Pshaw!
If you have never hung around with my cousin, you might think that. But I’ve seen him get stoned as fuck and sit there finger-spooning either hummus or peanut butter into his gaping maw while washing them down with Dr Pepper. Sometimes he changes things up and uses RC cola.
I suspect, when I show him this, he’ll take it as a challenge and try both at the same time.
