The grapevine? Could she not read the label or taste it? Nutella is nothing but the soft inside of truffles. Chocolate and the hazelnut version of peanut butter.
If it is that bad, she just shouldn’t buy it! What are the real economic damages possible for one jar of the stuff ... $5.00? If she bought more than one jar she should be deemed to be stupid and introduced to Slow Joe.

Nothing that good can be healthy. Taste alone screams chocolate.
I butter just about everything that requires a spread,and I’ve never eaten Nutella.
Don’t knock butter.
My jar lists the ingredients and nutritional info. No artificial preservatives, lots of sugar, some protein, the rest isn’t worth mentioning. I didn’t see the word “healthy” on the label, only the phrase “This is what a balanced breakfast looks like” with a picture of Nutella on bread and various fruit. This tiny presentation is on the back and unlikely to convince anyone in the grocery store to purchase it for health reasons. You buy it because hazelnut chocolate tastes good.
I don’t even waste it on bread; it’s s great pre-made frosting. Much better than actual canned frosting which tastes like flavored preservatives..
“... it’s great pre-made frosting”.
It does taste close to a ganache. That being said, heat some in the micro and pour it over ice cream. Very good. And no... it isn’t “good” for you. It simply tastes good.
That is what I was thinking... like can’t you read a label woman?
Party pooper ping
Thank you for the suggestion.
I’ve never bought it before but Nutella is going on the ‘ole shopping list.
Is this a f-ing JOKE? This is insane!
Spread? Frosting?
I just eat it by the spoonful.
Nutella sounds like something I need to try.
Put a tablespoon in a wonton wrapper, fry it for a minute or so, dust it with some powdered sugar. Makes a quick, fun dessert. It’s my daughters’ favorite treat when they have sleepovers. But, because it has never occurred to me that Nutella may even be remotely healthful, I only make it on special occasions. This woman couldn’t read a label?
>> Dont knock butter.
Are you kidding? I *love* butter! Butter is one of the four major food groups (along with steak, candy bars, and beer).
Nutella is tasty too; you should try it.
I hope she eats Vegemite for all eternity.
