    Yeah I'm with the original poster. It's not my thing. I had cookies once that were made with it and those were pretty good but straight up nutella? Blech! I also really don't like how it's marketed as hazelnuts with a touch of cocoa since it's actually sugar and palm oil with a touch of hazelnuts.

    It's like Miracle Whip, either you love, or you hate :)

    I am a lover.

    Nutella is to the French what peanut butter is to the American until recently, for some reason it all switched around. The French are now crazy about PB the same way the American are about Nutella. I grew up in France, so I know and I love Nutella but when I moved years ago, to the US it was not available yet and I discovered PB. I love them both in small quantity. Every body's tastes are different

    I discovered it on a college trip in the Middle East (long before it was popular or even widely available in the US). Breakfast (and most lunches) consisted of Nutella slathered on pita bread every day. Delicious! And, likely the reason I managed to gain 15 pounds in 2 months. I haven't touched the stuff since--way to dangerous!

    So Nutella is AMAZING!! It literally tastes like chocolate mixed with hazelnuts (which is basically what it is). My husband CLAIMS he doesn't like it, however I have caught him on several occasions eating it straight from the jar and mixing it with peanut butter. He says it tastes like a Reese's cup when he does that.

    It does taste like Reese's!! And this was discovered by my boyfriend too LOL. Men and their food experiments. I must say they are geniuses when it comes to food experiments.

    Nutella + peanut butter = SMART!

    I think OP is a troll and just posting this to get everyone fired up. There's just NO WAY not to love Nutella.

    I see people on here just raving about it and stating that they can't get enough of it.
    Personally if I was on a deserted island and it was the only food source I would rather starve to death!
    I hate that crap, think it tastes just awful, what's the big deal with Nutella?

    Sweet mother! I thought I was the only one who hated that *kitten*. My kid eats it right from the jar. GAG!

    I can't eat it without getting a headache :(. I'll just stick to my white chocolate peanut butter.

    I like chocolate pb but not nutella. I don't like hazelnuts or anything hazelnut flavored.

    I'm neutral about Nutella... I think it's good but it's number one ingredient is sugar followed by palm oil. I've made my own chocolate hazelnut spread and oh my word, was that delicious. It was definitely better than store bought Nutella.

    People who don't like or hate Nutella have no soul.

    In my entire life I've only tasted it once...and I'm guessing that was within the last year? (it was a co-worker who had some, and I've been here just over 2 years). I was unimpressed. I wouldn't say I hated it, or didn't like it...but seriously don't get the hype :/ it was just meh

    yup, using a spoon right from the jar. I can't be trusted if there is any in the house - thus none in the house. :laugh:

    ^^ROFL! Don't mind me... I just want this pick in my feed while having to ability to blame it on someone else.

    FTR: I love Nutella (just started buying 2 mos ago), but I swap back-n-forth between it and choc-PB since the latter has way more protein.

    Just DO NOT microwave it! My hubby thought he melt it down and put it on fruit for the kiddos for a snack....uhm, Epic Fail!
    (It does say right on the jar not to microwave it, but he didn't read that until after it had turned into a mess of powder and ruined the whole jar!)
