Nutella is one of those products that not everyone knows about even though it's right on the shelf next to peanut butter. It's similar to peanut butter as they have about the same calories and fat, and it's creamy like peanut butter. However, Nutella is made from hazelnuts, and is made with chocolate, so it's creamier and sweeter than peanut butter.

I first discovered this creamy spread from French class, when they made crepes to raise money. Europeans LOVE this stuff, and there's a good reason. It's great on bread, croissants, plain cookies, crepes, etc. It's rich and creamy and delicious. It's good as part of breakfast, it's good as part of a snack in the middle of the day, and it's good as part of a dessert after dinner.

The problems with Nutella is that it's more expensive than peanut butter and almost never on sale. It's also slightly less healthy than peanut butter, although they are comparable. And it's addicting! But depending on your point of view, that can be a good thing.
