    It's nutritional content is comparable to the tubs of icing for cakes. Still delicious.

    Nutella > than peanut butter but yes it's definitely a treat food for me. More because I'll sit there and eat it with a spoon.

    There are some recipes floating around for healthier home made nutella if you're that way inclined

    Meh that doesn't bother me. I have it occasionally on pancakes with strawberries or bananas. I do prefer natural peanut butter on an everyday basis, but sometimes Nutella just hits the spot!

    Personally I hate Nutella and don't agree with it being marketed as a "health food." But like all desserts, everything in moderation.

    I thought they stopped promoting it as a health food.

    OP, why?

    First of all, depending on where you got that picture, there's a reasonably good chance it isn't true.

    Second, what did you think it was made of? Oil, nuts, chocolate, and sugar, right?

    Sometimes a little palm oil and other not so great for you ingredients taste absolutely wonderful.

    I should say, it looks like happiness but I sure as heck am not eating it more than a couple times per year. If that. Hope others enjoy lol.

    21g of sugar per 37g of Nutella so, looks about right, yep.

    I find it to taste a little cheap. I used to like it more. Now if I could sit and eat as much of it as I wanted, I'd probably like it again. Just not worth a spoonful for so many calories. Rather have dark chocolate.

    Sometimes you need a quickie, cus itll satisfy you more than wholesome goodness. Ive been eating fruits, veggies, and nuts only since new years, but yesterday while on a 6 hour drive, i bought hazelnut snickers, knowing it has 400 calories total.

    BTW...the guy who mentioned Speculoos...try the almond butter and chocolate (also at T.Joes) :-) ahh, forget the sexual innuendos and sex talk...lets talk dirty food!!!

    get this girl some Walden farms chocolate sauce and PB2... STAT!

    I can't even have powdered peanut butter now. All calories go to veg, meat, and a protein bar here and there. And some sugar/creamer in my first coffee. And halo top.
