    I actually don't like it. I prefer pb, unsalted, unsweetened, if possible.

    I bought a 13 oz jar of Nutella today because I was bored with peanut butter. And it's UNBELIEVABLY YUMMY.

    Made 5 sandwiches and ate the rest with a spoon straight out of the jar.

    Question : How do you handle Nutella? :bigsmile:

    Good morning Sir,

    In discovering Nutella, you have also found what is quite a slippery slope. First it starts with a little on a cracker. Then, you're incorporating into dessert dishes. For awhile you like to delude yourself into thinking it's a special treat by serving hundreds of grams to yourself in nice ceramic ramekins and garnished highball glasses. The next thing you know, you're in an alley somewhere doing something you never thought you'd do just to buy another jar.

    Stop now, while there's still time.

    Sincerely,
    The Internet

    This. I keep telling myself "just one spoonful" and suddenly I'm waking up in a daze to an empty jar and two fingers missing because I gnawed them off in my frenzied attempt to ingest the very last traces of chocolate hazelnut goodness. Worst of all... when people are shocked at my mangled hand, I secretly think it was worth it...

    I handle it with a spoon... a large spoon.

    Sad fact is that Nutella - like Toblerone - is one of those things I don't buy unless I am going to Africa for work.

    Me too

    Is this the real life?
    Is this just fantasy?
    Caught in a landslide,
    No escape from reality.

    Open your eyes,
    Look up to the skies and see,
    I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
    Because I'm easy come, easy go,
    Little high, little low,
    Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

    Mama, just killed a man,
    Put a gun against his head,
    Pulled my trigger, now he's dead.
    Mama, life had just begun,
    But now I've gone and thrown it all away.

    Mama, ooh,
    Didn't mean to make you cry,
    If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
    Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.

    Too late, my time has come,
    Sent shivers down my spine,
    Body's aching all the time.
    Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,
    Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.

    Mama, ooh (any way the wind blows),
    I don't wanna die,
    I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all.

    I see a little silhouetto of a man,
    Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?
    Thunderbolt and lightning,
    Very, very frightening me.
    (Galileo) Galileo.
    (Galileo) Galileo,
    Galileo Figaro
    Magnifico.

    I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me.
    He's just a poor boy from a poor family,
    Spare him his life from this monstrosity.

    Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
    Bismillah! No, we will not let you go.
    (Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go.
    (Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go.
    (Let me go) Will not let you go.
    (Let me go) Will not let you go.
    (Never, never, never let me go) Ah.
    No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
    (Oh, mama mia, mama mia) Mama mia, let me go.
    Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me.

    So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
    So you think you can love me and leave me to die?
    Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
    Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.

    (Oh, yeah, oh yeah)

    Nothing really matters,
    Anyone can see,
    Nothing really matters,
    Nothing really matters to me.

    Any way the wind blows.

    You win the internet and life.

    I had to just quit buying it. I was at a point where I was eating half the large jar with a spoon per day.

    There's an awesome coffee shop where I live that makes an awesome Nutella Latte.

    Wow, where do you live? I want that latte!

    I don't buy Nutella because I know I will attack it with a spoon, and it'll be all gone! I think I bought some once, for shrove Tuesday. It didn't last long!

    I had a French friend who used to keep a jar in her room with a spoon!

    I used to be extremely addicted to nutella, at least and inch on my sandwiches and the milk chocolate with hazelnuts, etc., hence the 102 kilos I was weighing in the end, at least also. I got a recipe of a healthier version now, but still didn't make it. I fear it a bit, afraid it becomes an addiction again.

    I give it to someone who likes it. If they'll swap me peanut butter for it, even better.
  • Toast some whole wheat bread, put Nutella AND peanut butter AND banana on it! I mean, that's what I heard.....

    I have a great Nutella story:

    Back a few summers ago my friends and I went overnight camping 2 nights in Yosemite National Park. Anyways, I was still super chunky back then and really wanted to eat some Nutella. We were fortunate to find some in the park general store. Anways, food in Yosemite has to be stored in big iron food lockers because there are bear roaming all over the park. If you store any food in your car, the bears generally break the door of the car and eat the food.

    So, our food locker was right next to our tent, say about 5-10 feet away. I put my Nutella in the locker and we got ready to go to sleep. Our tent was a little small for 3 grown men, but we managed to kind of fit in it. Sometime around 2-3 AM, we weren't sure when, we started hearing sniffing and growling sounds outside of our tent. Then we started hearing BOOM BOOOM BOOM as a bear started slamming himself on our food locker. About a minute after this happened, we heard park rangers comes screaming "HEY BEAR HEY BEAR HEY BEAR" while flashing lights at it to scare it away. The bear kept slamming on my Nutella safe and then finally ran away.

    Lesson learned: 1)Nutella is bears favorite food. Do not keep Nutella around you if you are going to be camping out with the bears.
    2) Three grown men in a small tent is the funniest thing ever when there is a huge-*kitten* hungry bear outside.

    That was the best story I've heard in a long time!

    Wow, that good huh? I've never tried it.

    Me either-I have a jar in the cupboard-bought it for my kids for school lunches and none of them liked it :huh:

    You should get your children checked out - there's something wrong wth them ;)

    I should have myself checked out too because I don't like Nutella either. :ohwell:

    My husband bought some for the kids (they love it) and unfortunatley Nutella is evil and I ate almost the whole jar. Then I felt bad and had to buy a jar for my kids. Pathetic.....I love Nutella!

    I keep it in the top shelf of my pantry- where it's been for the past year.

    It's disgusting.

    Need to hit those last few calories for the day?

    Steps:

    1. Find a tablespoon
    2. Fill it with 1/2 peanut butter and 1/2 nutella
    3. Put your junk in the box.
    4. Dip the spoon in a few chocolate chips.
    5. Eat.

    I have a container of Nutella at home that I haven't opened once in 3 years.


    I wonder the shelf life of Nutella...
