Nutella,
I only buy it once or twice a year but no other chocolate spread tastes nearly as good.
That’s because it isn’t a chocolate spread, but rather a nut and nougat spread.
It has 13% hazelnut, the same as many other brands, but also the lowest amount I can buy. There’s a really pricy one that has 30%
Trader Joe’s would like a word
This is very true.
The Kraft one isn’t half bad
But then note I said “isn’t half bad”, not that it’s great. But I’d say it works in a pinch, or if it’s on sale…
It actually has very little chocolate in it, that’s why. It was made (i think) during WW2 when chocolate was in short supply, so they came up with a way to stretch it, by mixing a bunch of hazelnuts (and w/e else is in there) with it.
The Kirklands one is good, but doesn’t hold an emulsion. And trying to stir a 3000 litre tub of “hazelnut spread” to re-emulsify it isn’t on my list of desirable morning activities.
I could eat that as the fucking Whine Poo eats the honey ngl.
For nougat, the Milka stuff is better. If you want real chocolate, take Caotina.
I used to agree but after finding Kirkland hazelnut spread at costco i’ve switched to that. Its palm oil free and every bit as delicious as nutella.
