Peanut Butter Co. makes an awesome dark chocolate PB. More protein and about half the sugar of Nutella.0
-
Natural low sodium peanut butter. Nutella is high in sugar and has milk fat in it. Peanut butter is the best way to go, as long as you get the kind without high fructose corn syrup. (It causes fat).0
-
The first ingredient in Nutella is sugar. Not entirely productive from either a satiation or a calorie effectiveness standpoint.0
-
PB all the way... but be careful some pb brands have a lot of sugar too try to go for natural ones0
-
Nutella is so falsely advertised about that you can actually apply for refunds for it because of it!!0
-
Peanut Butter and Co. White Chocolate Wonderful and Dark Chcolate Dreams. Natural peanut butter and super good taste. Nutella is crap (but tastes soooooo good).
Love the dark chocolate dreams! eat it with a spoon out of the jar.0 -
If the OP is having a hard time eating 1,000 calories a day, recommending a low cal option like PB2 is not going to cut it. He needs to eat real peanut butter.0

Nutella is good on occasion, but go for the peanut butter.0

Have you ever tried Sunbutter? OMG, it's soooo good!0

Always peanut butter. Nutella is full of sugar
agreed, sort of. i was able to cut the sugar in half when i made nutella from scratch. i prefer mine to the store brand. the next time i make it, i'll try to cut the sugar in half again, just as an experiment.0 -
I have to admit both are fabulous but completely full of fat!!! Try PB2 if you must have this craving, otherwise find something else to fit this need.
The '80s are over...fat doesn't make you fat. Your body needs fat...peanut butter has a lot of good, heart healthy fats that actually protect you against heart disease. Nutella is just a ton of added sugar...I always find it ironic that people are so wary of fruit and the sugar in fruit on this site...but Nutella seems to be an MFP favorite food.0 -
i say nutella!!!! it is delicious and you shouldn't give up the things you enjoy especially since you need more calories. nutella all the way!0
-
Both. Always both.0

I'm addicted to peanut butter. I eat it like 3 times a day0
-
Try Almond Butter... It's really pretty damn good on apples, and has some serious vitamin/mineral benefits... a bit higher in calories, which you were looking for...0
