I'm probably the only one who had never tried Nutella but i found some at the dollor store this week. Had never even seen it before except on a tv commercial & had wondered about it because I LOVE CHOCOLATE.cOULDN'T WAIT TO GET HOME & FIX ME A PIECE OF TOAST w/Nutella on it, I loved it. Last night i put some on some vanilla ice cream, Yummy. Have u tried it before?

Yes I have. I don't like jelly that much so a peanut butter and jelly sandwich holds little appeal, but peanut butter and CHOCOLATE... I like that!

Nutella is highly addictive. Are your jars the same as ours, glass with a nice, plastic air tight lid? They are good for things like home made sauces that you only need to keep for a little while - no good for pressure canning/preserving.

I have not tried it. I'm sure it's very good, and I have seen it in grocery stores. However, it's a bit too pricey for me, and my kids would probably eat it all before I even had a chance to try it.

I haven't had it in ages, when I was younger I thought it was the next best thing to actual chocolate, I had the very bad habit of eating little spoonfuls of it from the fridge. The fact that it is made with nuts gives it that little taste of hazelnut chocolate, I hadn't thought about it in ages, thanks for reminding me.

NO...my dear friend, I have NOT! When I find the "pot of gold" at the end of the rainbow...or win the Lottery, I will have to subdue my wishes to try "Nutella!" I came very, very close to buying some in Safeway, the last time I was shopping...BUT it would have taken the better part of a TEN dollar bill, and I just couldn't justify spending that much! Find it in the Dollar Store, you betcha..I would give it a whirl! LUV & HUGZ!

Actually, I had not tried Nutella until recently either, but I stopped eating it because of the high fructose corn syrup. I love hazelnuts and you can make your own nut butters at home so I am thinking of getting some cacao and trying to make my own version of Nutella at home.

You have a sweet tooth my friend, because you like that. Us at home don't like it. In fact, the first time my sister-in-law sent us one, it stayed in our refrigerator untouched, after we have opened it. Lately, she again sent a box and there was a Nutella in it. We gave it to a cousin who has small children. And the children loves it.

Actually, we all don't like the chocolate flavor of the Nutella. But some of us in the house likes Peanut Butter on bread, but i don't. I just like to eat it straight from the spoon.

i love Nutella, funny thing is, I am one of the few people in the world that doesnt like chocolate, but i love hazelnuts, brazils etc., so a piece of bread and butter with a dollop of nutella in the morning , is the ideal breakfast. But with vanilla ice cream? what a great idea. another lovely topping for ice cream, probably along with nutella is evaporated milk. i put some on by accident, for my son when he was little, and it freezes on the icecream and is gorgeous!

Yes I have. It tastes the best fresh warm bread. I don't know the brand but another company has been trying to make similar chocolate spreads. Perhaps it was Jiff? I could be wrong on that but with chocolate and other flavors to it. Also you can find a generic version from time to time at Aldi too!

Looove Nutella,I would eat a lot,but unfortunately I have the type of metabolism,that it is enough to look at it and I put the weight on!!!So I indulge rarely,just a bit...It is sooo easy to put the weight on,and sooo hard to get rid of it!!!Life is not fair,when there are yummy things like Nutella around,and I can't really enjoy them!!!

I never knew there was so many people that haven't tried nutella in their whole life! I have nutella on my toast every Friday in the morning to spoil myself. It's even better if you have it with nice bread instead of just toast.
