    Almond butter is very good, comparable to peanut butter. My youngest has peanut and several tree nut allergies, including hazelnuts, so i generally stat away from Nutella and PB. BUT, I have tried Nutella, and let's just say that my daughter's allergy is saving my thighs.

    Nutella was just sued for having the nutritional value of a snickers bar.

    Almond butter is the healthiest.

    I love Smucker's Natural Peanut Butter, but I have recently discovered Natural Crunchy Almond Butter, and it is becoming my all time favorite! I eat a tablespoon.....or two....everyday.

    I've never had it. My hubby says it's popular in the UK. It sounds delicious.

    Nutella is amazing... I don't think it's great for weightloss though. It's my ultimate weakness. I used to eat in from the jar most of the time.... Not good :/

    Uh, from what I can see, Nutella is just glorified chocolate icing in a jar. I'll stick with peanut buter.

    I mix them. They are fattening, but I love them.

    And don't forget Toblerones either! Those are super good.

    I love both but Peanut Butter is my fave...specifically Simply Jiff (low sodium/low sugar). I just limit my daily intake to 1 TBSP at a time once or twice day. One of my go-to lunches includes an apple with 1 TBSP peanut butter spread on it. Yum!

    Natural peanut butter rocks my world. Only natural though, the other kind is gross.

    I have a jar of walnut/cashew butter which is really nice but the almond/chia one was nicer I think.

    French people eat Nutella. French people have a very long life expectancy. I spent a lot of years learning to speech French. I'm not giving up Nutella, though I consume it in small quantities. Viva Nutella!

    I am surprised I haven't seen anyone post anything about PB2. If you haven't heard, PB2 is a powdered peanut butter and it's awesome! I first learned of it from a nutritionist a few years ago and I've been so thankful for it. I get to enjoy my peanut butter without throwing my diet out of whack! :)

    PB2 is powder so you simply measure out a serving, adding water, mix and enjoy. It's 80% less fat & calories than standard peanut butter, but ALL the flavor & texture of real. I've been using it for a few years now and I love it. I use it on toast & it's great for making homemade protein bars.

    Google: PB2 for more info. You can purchase at a variety of well known websites (Amazon.com) and local store distribution is on the rise too. The maker's website is here: http://www.bellplantation.com

    Traditional 2 Tbsp – 190 calories Calories from fat - 130 Saturated fat – 3 grams
    *PB2 2 Tbsp – 45 calories Calories from fat – 13 Saturated fat – 0 grams

    THIS!!! PB2 !!!!

    Whole foods plant-based. Follow me if you want to live. Both will kill you. Very slowly and deliberately.

    Nutella is basically sugar sugar sugar and oil.
    Peanut butter is way less sweet and has protein. Don't buy nutella! It is TERRIBLE for you.

    Also, it is expensive, and SUPER SUPER SUPER sweet. So if you are used to PB you won't like it so much. It is so sweet it hurts my fillings :\

    Nutella is delicious, but it is basically candy.
