    Love the taste but could only eat it as a part of a true cheat meal.

    I used to put heaps of it on toast with butter, wait for it to melt, then eat it.... Little did I know that I was using two servings per piece of bread at 500 calories each! Including the bread, Wonder White, which is 181 calories, 500 x 4 = 2000 + 181 = 2181. Yikes. To think that I used to do this almost every day! I was obese as a child and weighed more at 12 (152 lbs) than I do now at 19 (116). Sorry if this post gave you diabetes.

    I've actually never had it either - but I'm not a big sweet/chocolate/sugar fan and after reading about it and looking it up, probably not worth it in the long run...

    Nutella is great, but has anyone tried Biscoff spread? OMFG. It's amazeballs. I can literally eat a whole jar.


    Literally.

    Just DO NOT microwave it! My hubby thought he melt it down and put it on fruit for the kiddos for a snack....uhm, Epic Fail!
    (It does say right on the jar not to microwave it, but he didn't read that until after it had turned into a mess of powder and ruined the whole jar!)

    I mixed some with coconut milk and microwaved for 15 seconds. Drizzled on fruit and it was delicious!

    I have amazing self control... I can turn down french fries with my burger, say no to cake in the office, and bake without eating. Nutella is my kryptonite.

    I think OP is a troll and just posting this to get everyone fired up. There's just NO WAY not to love Nutella.

    LoL... That's the nicest thing anyone has said to me all day!

    I see people on here just raving about it and stating that they can't get enough of it.
    Personally if I was on a deserted island and it was the only food source I would rather starve to death!
    I hate that crap, think it tastes just awful, what's the big deal with Nutella?

    You, sir, have issues. And that's allI have to say about that! ^^

    whats up with that?

    well he's just your avg BB.com bruh, who treats us to his presence to be 'mir'd and post videos of lightweight squats on balance beams in terrycloth robes.
    when hes not doing that, hes in the enchanted forest, taking low-key selfies.


    EDIT:
    oh....you mean the food product.
    well it's a glorious concoction of cocoa and hazelnuts in a spreadable form, though i prefer just spreading it in my mouth with a spoon, or a knife, or a finger, or a garden hoe, or a bulldozer.

    Too much like chocolate and not enough of anything else. Why not just suck down chocolate syrup?

    Nutella was a major food group when I was in college. I love it, so much so that it is no longer allowed in my house. A jar of nutella = major binge = guilt the next day.

    Sadly, if I bought a jar, I'd eat a jar the same day so I don't buy it.

    I, too think it's a matter of taste - but if you get enough nerve sometime, try cutting an apple into "smiles" then dip it in Nutella. M-m-m-m

    Nutella is one of the worst things you can eat. A 400g jar contains 218g of sugar, or 55%. That's equivalent to 78 sugar cubes.

    Ohmygosh, so good. Seriously. But the ingredients? And the calories? Not worth it. I just make it myself. Bit of honey, cocoa powder, and hazlenut butter. OMNOMNOMNOMNOM And hey, not too sweet.

    I actually detest the stuff. I thought I was alone!!!

    No you are not alone. I LOVE chocolate but I do not like Nutella at all. And to smell it on toast first thing in the morning is enough to make me lose my cookies.

    WOW, never thought anyone really hated this stuff! I like it but don't eat it anymore. I think the company that makes it got into poo-poo a while back for making it sound healthier than it is. My daughter eats a medium size jar of that stuff a week! :-0

    It's not cheap either!!! :(

    I grew up eating it (in small quantities when family brought it back from Europe), and now that it's popular I tried it again after a looooong time... All I taste now is the oil :sad: I do eat it once in awhile (I bought these teeny tiny individual serving packets at Target), and only when I'm craving chocolate and don't have the real thing do I bust it out.

    Huge fan of Nutella, but everyone is different. I rarely buy it and don't eat it often since it's too easy for me to go overboard on Nutella.
