    Actually it's neither of those. The correct way to pronounce it is 'the devil's spread that's so frickin delicious that you have to be physically separated from it in order to stop eating it' :D

    Nutella, manufactured by the Italian company Ferrero, was introduced on the market in 1963. The recipe was developed from an earlier Ferrero spread released in 1944. Nutella is now sold in over 75 countries.[2]

    I love it on a spoon.....and tend to have too many spoons full so I simply can't keep this stuff in the house :-)
    So, is that company ITalian or EYE-talian...:laugh: :laugh:

    its pronounced new-tella. when in doubt, listen to the pronunciation in the commercials! it only makes sense that a company would want their product pronounced rigth in their ads, so i'm pretty sure its correct.

    Justin's Chocolate Hazelnut spread is a good healthy substitute :)
    180 cal/2tbsp, but it's not super sugary like Nutella (whose main ingredient is sugar :o)
    ~takes a little adjustment though because it's got taste-able sea salt in it

    OH & I pronounce it NUtella, have since I was a kid..I've only ever heard NUTella like twice

    So the people in the NEW-tella commercials don't know how to pronounce the name of the product they're trying to sell? ;-)

    Their web site says "new-tell-uh". You can pronounce it however you want, but the correct way is not really up for debate.

    It annoys the heck out of me when people say "NEW-tella." The reason being exactly what you said in your opening statement.

    It is the correct way though.

    That may be so, but it still sounds incorrect to me. Same as when people call a tomato a "tom-ah-toe." (Don't know if that's written right, but you get the gist.)

    It's NEW-tella. It's not an English word, it's an Italian word.

    I say NU-tella because that's the proper way to say it - it's a european concoction and they pronounce certain words differently than Americans.

    This made me LOL, first of all, there are 50 countries in Europe, and over 200 languages spoken in Europe, so then is NU-tella pronounced the same in all these languages?

    Anyway, I'm from Ireland, and we pronounce it Nut-ella, because that's the way it's pronounced. Durrrr, it's made from NUTS
