Nutella

I used to love it on wonderbread. It was the one thing wonder bread was good for. Haven't had it in years though.

One day I decided not to ingest this anymore. I still think fondly of the good times I had with this crack-substitute (salty pretzels dipped in Nutella...

), but I know I'm better without. In theory.

Whole Foods carries a good "organic" and all that Nutella-like product. The brand name escapes me right, and I don't keep it in the house. Too dangerous...

+1 to Despos' suggestion of nutella on strawberries. Also pears.

I like the hazelnut chocolate spread made by Le Pain Quotidian a little more than Nutella. I stopped buying them after I read the caloric info and since I can go through a jar by myself in 2-3 days.

Thankfully in Paris you don't see people offering to put that on your streetside crepes.

it would be great with some cheese on a crepe tbh

I thought Nutella was extremely healthy because Kobe Bryant endorses it and there are pictures of healthy things on its advertisements.

I've never had it, but I can't imagine it's better than peanut butter.

Every time someone starts a sentence with "I can't imagine..." all we learn is the limit of their imagination. Nutella is a different trip - much more like eating chocolate than eating nuts.

/first person to make a chocolate nuts joke wins this shiny quarter...

yum

It's funny but I cannot stand peanut butter at all. I actually don't like peanuts period. Lowest of all nuts (sic). Give hazelnuts, almonds, pistachios, maybe pecans and walnuts, cashew and macademia in moceration - but peanuts, I don't get them.

 

[itsstillmatt]

Almonds are pretty much the only nuts I love by themselves. Specifically marcona almonds cooked in olive oil with a healthy bit of salt. Peanuts are gross, but I can go for peanut butter deserts once in a while.

Funny, almonds are probably my least favorite nut to eat out of hand. A buttery cashew beats an almond any day, in my book.

Obviously someone never tried nutella with vegemite.
