the circle is now complete

biancardi — Sun, 21 Sep 2014 03:36:27 GMT

okay, don't know why I thought of that line from Star Wars, but just imagine Darth Vader's voice saying that ...when you see these at the grocery store

this is new to me. Never saw them before. I love Nutella (yes, it is bad for you, blah blah - take it somewhere else, killjoys) but I was happy that I could not take it on the "go" - to work, at a game, whatever. Now, the circle is complete....Nutella has gone to the Dark Side and to my hips a lot easier!! And of course, I picked a few up. You know, for snacks at work. bwahahaha

btw, in germany, they go one step further - they have a 3rd compartment for Estathé iced tea!

Never had Nutella! Is it like peanut butter?

Enjoy! It looks absolutely delicious.

No one can resist every temptation. We just have to weigh out what is worth it and Nutella is definitely worth it.

I saw those at the checkout a while ago. I bought one so I could taste this Nutella stuff everyone raves about. I didn't hate it, but I never need to buy it again. I suppose it is better on something other than bread sticks, though.

it is amazing on just toasted bread.. I love to make a crepe and use nutella and bananas as the filling...

That does sound good, but I don't need another temptation!

I'm afraid that after tasting Nutella I discovered I don't care for the hazelnuts. Here I was, ready to enjoy it on toasted bread as an alternative to peanut butter!

But Hersey's is imitating your Nutella and breadsticks (?) with a chocolate grouping of snacks with dippers. If I discover a chocolate peanut butter one I'm done for.

Enjoy your Nutella at work. Leave the calories at home-

Biancardi, you can have my share of Nutella. I love the idea the Germans have by providing a drink along with it though.

Well, biancardi, I'm not surprised you thought of that line!

The first ingredient in Nutella is sugar and in one serving there is 21g. That is why I buy Justins brand where the first ingredient is dry roasted hazlenuts and in one serving there is 7g of sugar.

For portion control though I buy it in this size as I have been known to finish off a whole jar of the stuff in two days.

You are welcome to my share, OP. I despise the stuff.

I like Nutella too (thanks to my grandchildren introducing it to me 2 yrs ago). But I wouldn't eat it like that w breadsticks. I prefer it on crepes, other breakfast foods, or a sandwich. However I don't eat it a lot.

I can't buy it. I will eat the whole jar in one sitting. I have no self control.
