Dudes. I make my own hummus and roasted chickpeas all the time. They're a super low GI, high fiber, high protein food. It's not bad for BG, in moderation. (I'm not saying you should try this, but) There've been times when I've eaten a whole can of chickpeas in some form or another (roasted, hummus, in a bean salad), without bolus'ing, and my BG never went past 11. Mind you 11's not good, but hey... all things considered. 
Not all carbs are created equal.
But omg I want hummus and homemade pita chips now. Olive oil and garlic and chickpeas. Oh My.
I'm off to Safeway.
Seriously... chickpeas(and other low GI foods) are a diabetics best friend.
