    I cant believe people do not like Nutella. What kind of madness is this?!? If i found out it was made of puppy tears and kitten tails i would still love it as i do.

    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.

    I thought Nutella packed a punch, until I started buying speculoos cookie butter.. 220 cals per 2 tbsp.. ack it's crayy :o

    Cookie butter is amazeballs.

    I think nutella tastes good but it's the kind of food I can't eat in moderation, so I never purchase it.
    As for the palm oil, where I live there are other hazelnut spreads that taste better in my opinion and don't have palm oil, for example Novi, it has 45% hazelnut and tastes delicious, not "cheap" as nutella! it still has loads of sugar though so just like Nutella should be consumed in moderation

    That "duo penotti" brand came out with an Oreos and cream spread recently, I found it at my supermarket yesterday!

    It could be made out of the souls of puppies and I'd still eat it by the jar as it's so yummy. Funnily enough I don't keep any in the house anymore

    The photo reminds me of the Milky Way spread we had when I was little. It looked like the jars on the top right-hand side with the white stripes. This I would love to eat again !

    I see what you did there.
    Nutella drizzled over set-in-the-fridge cookie butter? Oh gods YES!

    Looks like happiness to me. Sugar is so awesome.

    Right there with ya @bbell1985 :smiley:

    Other than the palm oil, I see nothing wrong with it. I wish a different oil would be used.



    Weigh out single servings onto wax paper or in little muffin cases and freeze. You're very welcome.

    I prefer frozen/fridge Nutella... it's tastier to me.

    Never tried it, don't want to. But I do like a scoop of Fluff in a hot chocolate from time to time...

    I can't have cookie butter anywhere near me or the whole jar is gone. Well, I can have an unopened jar of it but once that seal is broken, all bets are off.

    Mmm. But definitely not a health food.

    This is my personal favorite spread. I have to say, I'm not too sure how it would taste mixed with M and Ms. That's just how they were sold on the website.

    http://www.jocooks.com/bakery/cakes/nutella-magic-cake/ And even with my aversion to the spread, I recommend this.

    Try this. It gives Nutella a run for the money. Twix spread is da bomb.

    @CooCooPuff get some friends in the U.K. I'm live in America but I love the UK! The Bounty spread is even better.

    I've tried that and actually didn't like it that much. That surprised me!

    I agree. And I despise nutella. I don't get why people are so obsessed with it - I think it tastes awful.

    I never liked it until I started eating it with a decent blob of honey. It needed something and that something turned out to be honey. :)

    Yeah I grew up on the stuff. Nutella sandwiches for breakfast. Now there's no way I would be able to do that unfortunately, I'd be starving within 2 hours and it's totally not worth the 700+ calories breakfast (using packaged brioche, lol. So not filling for the calories).

    Now I pretty much only use them on crepes (3x a year or something when I make them). Otherwise I use Justin's hazelnut butter but it just doesn't taste the same on crepes at all.

    There was a lawsuit a few years ago about this.

    I submitted a claim to take advantage and got a check for the price of a large jar.

  • I grew up on it. My grandad always used to give it to me for tea at his house so it reminds me of him. But as a grown up I can't stand it - it's really sickly sweet and actually kind of disgusting.

    Who TF ever thought Nutella was a "health food"?! That being said - yummy deliciousness. Yummy, high-calorie deliciousness.
