Nutella Hazelnut Spread 13oz — 

I have been wanting to try Nutella for a while after seeing it advertised on TV. Well, my husband got a chance to eat it at work and raved about it. So I had to get some once I heard how good it was.

Nutella is a delicious spread made with hazelnuts, skim milk, cocoa and a few other ingredients. It can be used for all sorts of foods. Some of the suggestions given on the jar are bagels, bread, english muffins, waffles, toast and croissants. Nutella can be used on anything that you want. I personally have only tried it on bread instead of the old PB&J sandwich, minus the jelly and it is so good. You can definitely taste the hazelnuts and chocolate. Honestly I think it has a little too much cocoa but it's still great.

Here are some nutrition facts:

If you like hazelnuts, chocolate or if you're just wanting to try something new I recommend trying out Nutella. A 13 ounce jar was around $3.50 which is a little more expensive than peanut butter but well worth it.

Absolutely wonderful stuff!!! I first had it in Italy where it adorns every breakfast table there. Became addicted to it....and now it's always on my shelf at home. So what if it's not very healthy for you....it's great! Great review!

YUMMMMMM! My cousin and I took a spring break learning trip to Europe a few years back; there is NOTHING better than a crepe with nutella at 12am under the twinkling Eiffel Tower! And to think - the Parisians HATED the tower to begin with, ugh!... well, maybe a crepe with just sugar...

I always saw this sitting on pantry shelves in old people's homes so I was totally taken by surprise recently when I started seeing the commercials. I'm not so sure about the hazelnuts but I love Cocoa. I might try this and if I don't like it I can always donate it to my sister. She has 3 children so one of them is bound to like it :+) Thanks for reviewing!
