Mmmmm Nutella. I always have it in the house but rarely eat it by itself. I make a delicious concoction with it that is amazing:
2 tablespoons Nutella
3/4-1 cup plain greek yogurt
1+ teaspoon dry cheesecake flavored pudding mix
This is good for two servings, and it works out to about 150 calories a serving. I usually dip apples in it, but it's seriously so good you could eat it with a spoon. I have it almost every day.
Nutella and graham crackers is also one of my fave treats.0 -

The problem with Nutella is not that it contains fat, but that the fat is palm oil. It's certainly not among the healthy fats, not to mention that it has HORRIBLE social and environmental impacts in the countries where it is produced. The fact that the main ingredient in Nutella is sugar? Not so good either.
I would much rather have a handful of filberts and a small piece of good chocolate.0 -

Each serving (2 tbsp.) of Nutella contains 200 calories with 100 of those calories being calories from fat. Although Nutella spread does not contain any trans fat it does contain 3.5 grams of saturated fat per serving. If you were eating a diet based on 2,000 calories daily that would be approximately 18% of your fat intake for the entire day. There are 11 grams of total fat per serving.
It should be noted that Nutella nutrition facts show that the spread itself contains a whopping 21 grams of sugar per serving. The first ingredient listed on the packaging is sugar. Remember that the ingredients on food labels are listed in order from most to least. This tells you that the main ingredient in this product is sugar.

I don't even know what your point is here.
While Nutella is delicious, I can't really go back to it ever since my sister made me homemade Nutella for Christmas one year. It tasted like high fiving a million angels, and was so much better than the brand. It was far less sweet (not that I have an issue with sugar), and so much more nutty and flavourful. I need to make some...
I need this recipe.
I Nutella
Haha. I'll have to ask her for the recipe. I'm pretty sure it's just roasted hazelnuts, cocoa powder (or maybe melted chocolate???), a bit of sugar, really not that much, all food processed together, with maybe a splash of milk or cream to hold it together. It's much more of a paste than regular Nutella, which can be kind of gloopy. I'll find that recipe though.
OK I think this might be the recipe my sister used, or close enough to it:

I know!! I am going to make it soon. And it doesn't have the demon palm oil! Which I didn't even know was a Bad Thing.
Yay, another plus for the homemade nutella! I did know about the issues with the palm oil industry.

It's a very Bad Thing.
Cup noodles and some types of ramen noodles also have palm oil. Yet another reason to never eat those!

One bad day doesn't undo everything you have already accomplished or are working towards. Acknowledge that it was a "bad day," and move on. You can do this, you are more than capable! Everyone has their foods that they can't resist sometimes...it's called being human. You got this!0

I was just doing some reading about it, I wasn't aware until now. Interesting. I definitely will consider avoiding it in the future. I mean, food-wise I'm pretty sure it's just another oil, but the environmental stuff is pretty un-cool.
Yeah, I guess I didn't even think about it in food. I was only thinking of it in hair and skin care products.

I love Nutella. I've learned to love it in moderation. I've had it since I was a little kid (in France pretty much everyone has Nutella in their home).
It's very true that there is Palm Oil in Nutella. And a lot of it ... Check out this video.
It's ok to have a little every so often so long as you don't splurge on it. That's the hard part ! Also, if you heat it in the microwave for a few seconds then it's way easier to spread and you end up using less.0
