    i hate this whole "food is neither good nor bad" schtick on here. a few years ago prior to my taking a vacation from mfp, the schtick was "eat more to weigh less!!! and starvation mode for under 1200 calories OMG!" that died and now it's sugar is fine and there is no good or bad foods and don't juice!!

    some food is better than others. nutella tastes good and it's not going to kill you, but it's not a top notch food nutritionally.

    Yay for you. Either way food is fuel. It is neither good nor bad. IF you choose to villainize an inanimate object. fine.

    Then stay out of the forums. I fail to understand why you would think that I care about your opinion. If what you are doing works for you, cool.

    idk, you answered quite a few of my posts for someone who "does not care". i think you do care, otherwise you would have ignored me.

    You haven't fully experienced the awesomeness of Nutella until you've mixed it with butter. Take a piece of bread, spread some butter on it and the Nutella on top! Delicious!

    I think the OP was just making a light-hearted food joke. They were not actually demonizing food or anything like that. I do not have binge eating disorder. I never have. And yet, I know there are certain foods that sometimes I will eat a whole bunch of it past the point that I want to. And the foods themselves are not incredibly nutritious, and take the space of calories for meeting my protein macro or having some fresh fruits and vegetables or meeting my calcium for the day. So, I buy those foods sometimes. Not every time I go food shopping and not every time I run out. That is another way of practicing moderation. Whatever works for you. The world will not come crashing down if someone takes a break from nutella on the way to better fitness.

    I haven't had Nutella in a very long time. I think I had fallen out of love with it because of the hazelnut. Not a big fan of that nut.

    And yet, I can scarf down those Ferrero Rochers like nobody's business.

    I guess I'm a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.

    Either that or my dismissal of Nutella was premature and on a whim. Perhaps I should give it another chance.

    yeah, i'm also surprisingly a non-fan of hazelnut. not only is the taste blah to me, but i think i might have a slight allergy to it. it makes my tongue feel numb. i have no problem with nutella though.

    OK I think this might be the recipe my sister used, or close enough to it:

    http://www.babble.com/best-recipes/homemade-nutella-oh-yes/

    Thank g-d for Pinterest. Although the number of hippie, vegan, paleo BS fake imitations I had to wade through to find this was ridiculous. I have no idea what the calorie/macro numbers on this....don't really care haha

    I know you said you didn't care, but according to the recipe builder if you split the recipe into 40 servings, each has:

    calories 95
    Total Fat 6 g
    Saturated Fat 1 g
    Monounsaturated Fat 2 g
    Polyunsaturated Fat 0 g
    Trans Fat 0 g
    Cholesterol 3 mg
    Sodium 16 mg
    Potassium 65 mg
    Total Carbohydrate 10 g
    Dietary Fiber 1 g
    Sugars 8 g
    Protein 2 g
    Vitamin A 1 %
    Vitamin C 1 %
    Calcium 3 %
    Iron 4 %

    of course, that's just with the ingredients I chose - different brands/choices might affect the end result a bit. I'm with the person who loves the Reese's Chocolate peanut butter spread. Once I ate a whole jar in less than 24 hours. Depression affects willpower in bad ways. (I am taking care of that now. Less self-medicating with chocolate, and more medicating according to doctor's orders.)

    Purdy's Turona:
    Turona’s key ingredient is its 65% cocoa harvested from a single Peruvian plantation. The soil, which previously harvested bananas, retains the flavour of the fruit, which adds a distinct taste.

    The first layer is Gianduja, a soft puree of almond, hazelnut and creamy milk chocolate, entwined with a French pastry flake. The second layer is a rich, dark chocolate truffle made with fresh whipping cream and cocoa. The two-layer piece is then enrobed in decadent, dark chocolate.

    I can't pig out if I only buy one....

    ^^ This and

    You guys are a RIOT! o:)>:)

    I Luve Me Some Nutella - I know ..... how not so good it is, but hey! My Subject pulled you guys to talk about it didn't it ? :) Good or Bad, it is now under my timmy tumm tumm... yum... yum! and for ANOTHER record, I worked out extra 30 minutes to make up for my Nutella - but I still only burned 350! I was 50 short. I'll try some more today! so I can make it up this week!

    Anyway, Im just about done with my AF so looks like Nutella is going back to the very dark place it was! Behind our Pantry! where I will only search it back out when my next favorite time of the month comes back (TMI sorry!)...

    Why would anyone think nutella was a health food? silly people.

    Each serving (2 tbsp.) of Nutella contains 200 calories with 100 of those calories being calories from fat. Although Nutella spread does not contain any trans fat it does contain 3.5 grams of saturated fat per serving. If you were eating a diet based on 2,000 calories daily that would be approximately 18% of your fat intake for the entire day. There are 11 grams of total fat per serving.

    It should be noted that Nutella nutrition facts show that the spread itself contains a whopping 21 grams of sugar per serving. The first ingredient listed on the packaging is sugar. Remember that the ingredients on food labels are listed in order from most to least. This tells you that the main ingredient in this product is sugar.

    AND
    no artificial colors
    no artificial preservatives
    but
    ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR!

    I don't even know what your point is here.
    While Nutella is delicious, I can't really go back to it ever since my sister made me homemade Nutella for Christmas one year. It tasted like high fiving a million angels, and was so much better than the brand. It was far less sweet (not that I have an issue with sugar), and so much more nutty and flavourful. I need to make some...

    High Fiving a million angels.. hahahah awesome
