    It’s to do with refrigeration salsa needs to be refrigerated hummus doesn’t. Refrigerated and I think you’re supposed to once open but it can be stored just out in the open.

    The reason that it being deformable is important is it means you can easily get the hummus out of the jar it doesn’t get stuck on anything because you just squish the tub. That isn’t possible with salsa though because it has to be in a glass jar for refrigeration purposes.

      Hummus is absolutely not shelf-stable, before or after opening, that’s why they keep it in the refrigerated section of the grocery store. And the tubs are not deformable, at least not here in America. Salsa is shelf-stable before opening because it’s canned in glass jars. What are you on about?
