A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

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.

Then they aren't really the same thing.

You could've just said they're both bean pastes, lol

Still no hummus one! Chickpea water is not hummus.

And I don't think a Thai Hummus Curry would work very well...

The blondies are made with chickpeas, not hummus...and they have peanut butter, which means the (not) hummus isn't a replacement for the peanut butter.

But I do appreciate your efforts in your search!

The original concit was peanuts and chickpeas, not hummus, are similar. Hummus has garlic and sesame seed puree added. Individually I know those things have sweet analogues, halawa and garlic icecream respectively.

Chickpeas have many used in sweet cooking

Peanut has many uses in savory dishes, some even direct replacements for chicpeas.
