But she is spreading it on the bread stating that it gets the family to eat healthier which in people's mind means that nutella is healthy.
And, again, stupidity =/= false advertising.
The ingredients are on the label. I read it when I first thought about trying the stuff. When I saw the first ingredient was sugar and looke dat the macros, I put it back.
"I'm too dumb to read a label" should not be a lawsuit basis.Then there's obviously other factors at work that you or I are not aware of, right?
Maybe. But from what I read of the lawsuit, what's been stated here is basically it. People misinterpreted the ads and sued because they were dumb and lazy.0 -
i like them both. I eat them both.
I do find that peanut butter seems to hang around my pantry longer than nutella...
but I have a kid...soooo...
it's a taste thing mostly....both have sugar, both are high in calories...I make them fit my macros...and I enjoy them both.0 -

And as I stated in my previous post we live in a litigious society. It doesn't matter what the ad said or didn't say. It doesn't matter what people thought or if they read the ingredients. People will sue for any reason.0 -

Is Nutella just good at marketing
That.
It's basically dessert in a jar.0 -

Nutella and peanut butter are just completely different. You can't compare them as much as you can't compare coke to orange juice or such. The composition is different and the macronutrients are different. Also, the taste is different.
Nutella is VERY used in certain countries that why it's hard to cut it out of your diet, and even if it's considered one of the main choices for breakfasts and snacks, everyone knows it's not healthy especially if you eat the whole glass.
It's not poison since no edible food is actually poisonous, it's just high in calories and not usually suitable in diets. Also, most people eat big quantities of Nutella on daily basis, it's like pizza, it's very hard to eat a few slices of pizza here, no one actually does that... if you have a whole Nutella glass you'll be tempted to eat it all in a short amount of time. That's what makes it unhealthy.
I can tell I'm personally avoiding it just because I don't want to gain weight, but if I could control myself over it I'd still be eating it and I'll surely be having it anytime soon in reasonable quantities.
Also, it tastes great in my opinion. But that's not what the OP was talking about so the taste is actually irrelevant, there's no need to make such comparisions, some people like peanut butter, some Nutella, some both.0 -
Not everyone is as smart as you are obviously.0

I tried Nutella, a little sweet for me. Extra crunchy PB, I could eat the whole jar. I think a PB and bacon sandwich might be yummy!
Yes it is. PB n Bacon on French Toast made on the griddle right behind the bacon.... OMG SO GOOOOOD!0 -
I eat Nutella more often than peanut butter just because I usually use a small amount on a piece of bread; I find it too sweet. I can't say the same for peanut butter. The more peanut butter, the better!0

PB all the way...I love Smuckers Natural Chunky. I could eat a whole jar....0

I prefer to use the term "uneducated" instead of dumb and lazy.
Also, BTW, they interviewed some of the people involved in the lawsuit and their exact words were that they didn't have time to read labels and food companies should just tell them what's in the food.
So, yeah, I'm sticking with stupid and lazy and an attorney looking for an easy payday.0 -
I mostly don't buy it because it's so expensive. And the other brand is just as bad.0

I say all things in moderation. Nutella is great in my opinion and this is what all these boards are basically for "your opinion". Peanut butter is great as well. I have tried PB2 and it was okay in "my opinion". I however did not like the idea of adding water to my peanut butter to get the consistency of peanut butter. You just have to make exercise that day more go from there0
