I usually throw away homemade hummus after about a week - I'm never sure if it's gone bad, but I throw it away just to be safe, because of the garlic. Rancid garlic can actually be poisonous. But... considering how many other commercial products actually have garlic in it, I'm sure the stuff probably does last quite a bit longer than a week. Maybe I'm just paranoid.

Someone told me garlic butter (not powder) is like a preservative, but if it's in a can, hummus won't be good long.
20 - 35 minutes is the expiration for it in an open can.
Canned hummus is an excellent potential carrier of salmonella, but then so are hardboiled eggs and baked fish at room temperature.
I'd be careful about some chicken as well (black parts indicate disease or illness).
