Nutella IS chocolate--cocoa to be exact. It is like peanut
Butter only hazel nut based instead and chocolate.

It is wonderful on warm toast ( i miss bread now doing gluten
Free).

Don't confuse it with the newly advertised Hershey's-- which
I assume is filled with additives-- but i haven't seen a jar of
That yet. Hershey's chocolate and symphony bars have
That PGPR junk in them now and really make my GI issues
Much worse. Nutella is more natural and sinfully delightful.

It has been in Europe and other countries for many years
and just now making a dent in USA. We' ve used it
For many years and our son is crazy for it!

It'd be nice on a warm croissant.

Default Nutella

Interesting article.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutella

Here is another site.

http://www.nutellausa.com/history3.htm

Hershey's chocolate spread ingredients.

http://www.hersheys.com/spreads/flavors.cshtml

Also interesting when you read the ingredients on the label of Nutella. A lot of sugar.

Oh, I know. It's a pain really, but it tastes so good.

Ours also has palm oil in it too, not sure about in the USA.

I'm not happy with the palm oil industry.

'A spokesperson for Ferroro, which uses palm oil in its popular spread Nutella, said the company switched to more environmentally friendly sources last year and intended to increase the quota of certified oil it uses.'

Make up for it

I totally understand.

When you think about it too, it's quite a cheap treat compared with buying things like hazlenut praline chocolates.

You're more strong willed than me. I couldn't miss lunch.

LOL I am sitting here at the computer at 1:30 am with a cup of decaf tea and graham crackers with nutella spread on them

Wish DS34 could partake but he is allergic to milk products, along with most everything else. It is a wonderful way to get chocolate cravings!!

I was hooked on Nutella for a while, had to quit buying it. But that was years ago. Recently, last week, I bought a small jar. I've had a couple spoonfuls over the past week, not as bad as before when I'd eat half a big jar at once. Let's hope the addiction doesn't come back.

Oh, I forgot, I like Nutella with Marshmallow. I alternate a spoon of Nutella with a spoon of Marshmallow Fluff.
