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.

Spread? Frosting?

I just eat it by the spoonful.

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?
