    that's more difficult than it looks. It's nearly impossible to get this god goo through a straw.

    Being Italian we were practically raised on Nutella. It is and will always be my most favourite thing on earth! I eat that *kitten* with a spoon!

    My son is a very picky eater. Nutella is one of the things he will eat, so while I don't give him half a jar, I have NO issues with giving him something close to 2-3 tbsp on a sandwich. It also works for bribery to get him to eat other foods :).

    Don't know if this is the best way to deal with a picky eater? Sounds like you are rewarding a behavior by caving into giving them a higher fat, sugary treat. Higher fat foods, or higher sugary foods of course taste better. When your providing those foods to a picky eater your perpetuating the problem by desensitizing their taste buds, ensuring that they will only want more of those kinds of foods.
    I am not saying don't give your children treats. I allow my children to eat them. I just don't use them as a reward. I don't want the to make that kind of association with food, or learn a dependency that food = good job. I want them to know food is food, and it is something you get to enjoy in moderation. I don't want them using food as a crutch.
    I can say that using this philosophy all my children stop, and think about making better choices. Even my son when he was 3 would stop, and ask if something was a better choice , over another food item. Now he will go for the apple (still a little higher in sugar) over the candy bar at 10.

    I always buy it with the intention to just put a tiny bit on top of my eggo waffles for breakfast, and then the evening rolls around and can't stop myself from eating it by the spoonful.

    Must not buy the stuff...I have no control!

    I have a cookie recipe that calls for browning the butter, using two different kinds of chocolate chips, sprinkling the tops with sea salt, and a Nutella filling inside.

    They're AMAAAAZING but not exactly diet-friendly... even if they do fit in your macros, your sugar is blown out for the day with one cookie.

    Nutella is a nice treat, but isn't a pantry staple in my opinion.

    if you think nutella is deliciously evil, try the skippy natural dark chocolate peanut butter spread. MUCH better, health wise, I think. and it's less sweet, so I think it tastes better, myself. :)

    IT IS. IT IS.

    I've never ever met anyone who doesn't like Nutella. It's probably worse than pizza. You can have a single teaspoon and feel the HEAVEN

    I don't like Nutella. And whenever I tell people that.. it's time to queue the 'What's wrong with you?!' response. :)

    Careful where you source it from, Europe Nutella has a different formulation, healthier, while the stuff in Americas made with hydrogenated oils (fake trans fats) not good for your body.

    Ever visited Paris? You will see Nutella filled crepes everywhere! And I mean everywhere. Even street food vendors.

    To say I love Nutella would be an understatement.

    I LOVE Nutella!! I do eat it occasionally. I like it best on vanilla wafers, but it's pretty darn good on graham crackers, too. Some days, it's worth eating lettuce all day in order to get my Nutella at night!
