I Like Nutella with...........
 

Starting a Nutella thread while on
Vacation.

So where I am now it is cold, damp and
Raining. Nutella is just perfect for me
Today ;)

So how do you eat Nutella? And if you
Don't know what it is (in spite of the
TV commercials) you will learn about it
As people post here ;) .

... a spoon

nutella pizza here in new York city :)

Lara, i have to laugh!

I have limited gluten free stuff up here
so a butter knife is a stand in here.

I find the chocolate blast very satisfying.

The news just had an item about the hazelnuts
Crop failing so Nutella will soon increase in
Price. Hubby made a long distance Super
Walmart trip last week and they had 3
Sizes there. Our home store only has the
Small one. And local grocery has NONE
And my small jar was empty already! I usually
Only get the small size.

This Walmart is on the Canadian border so many
Canadian shoppers are there. Big Nutella but no
Gluten free stuff like at home!
And they had a ginormous jar of 35 ounces!
But i had him get the middle sized one which
Is 26 ounces ;) this should last until we return LOL!

Yep, shortage of hazelnuts worldwide.

26 ounces? That's the way to go.

I went out yesterday and bought 2 jars of nutella.
Says a lot for advertising on the news really doesn't it.

They're on special everywhere here at the moment.
It's been a long time since we had any. It's a big treat for us.

I make truffles at xmas time and use cold nutella rolled into a little ball in the middle.
The sweet truffles of course, not the fungi!

I've seen nutella pizzas here too, but I like my pizza very savoury if I ever have it.

mrsD, just curious, is it the soy and lethicin that's in regular Nutella that is the problem for gluten sensitive people? I couldn't find anything else on the list that it could be.

No, not a problem i am aware of.

But then i am not intense or need to be like Celiacs
Require.

I am very sensitive to malted barley, and some of the
Gum additives that are becoming common in food.
Pgpr (I may have the abbrev. slightly wrong) in Hershey's bothers me (a cocoabutter substitute)
And carob bean (aka locust bean) also bothers my
GI problems. So far Dove chocolate is still free from
Those gums.

Because of my angioedema problem I have many triggers.
I use gluten free crackers, rice cakes, and no bread.
I can sometimes cheat with pasta, but i also try and
Use buckwheat or brown rice substitutes as much as possible.

Oh, I get it.

I misread your post. :rolleyes:

I thought you were talking about gluten free nutella.

Oh, sorry about that !

Typing on this little phone with the stylus means lots of
Typos and correcting and i just lose the gist of my thoughts.
I normally touch type on standard keyboards and that way
Is so different for my old brain tha using the phone
Is tiring and frustrating. Sigh

I've never tried Nutella but I think I need to. I've seen many commercials for it and now there is a chocolate one. Maybe next shopping trip I can get a jar. :)
