The pop-up tops on jarred food are there to tell you if the item had been previously opened. These can fail, but a good rule of thumb is to return the item if that is "popped-up" before you open it.

Is it safe to eat hummus if opened after the best sell by date....Its only been open a week but it has fungus on it?

It is probably safe to eat hummus if opened after the Best Sell By date, as this is the date the manufacture suggests to have it off the shelves by. However, if you see fungus on the product, don't eat it - it has already spoiled and trying to scrape away the fungus to get to the hummus that still looks good can make you sick.
