What is Nutella?
Nutella is a hazelnut and cocoa spread that is sweet and delicious, with a big fanbase around the world. Originating in Italy, Nutella is a product of the Ferrero company, the same one that makes the famous gold-wrapped Ferrero Rocher chocolates. Although Nutella isn’t exactly famous for being healthy, it’s often consumed for breakfast in countries like Italy and Brazil for a quick and easy meal. The sugar and fat content in Nutella per serving is much higher than in peanut butter. Regardless of the nutritional info, Nutella is not just a popular item but an important part of the culture in some countries.
