When is a Door Not a Door?

[Kargathia]

Funny thing, never had Nutella before. Considering how batshit everyone goes for it and the fervor for which they'll defend it, I don't think I'll ever pick it up myself. I guess what I'm trying to say is I at least I know I have some class...can't say the same about anyone else here who has had Nutella.

I'm also slightly weirded out by this craze, but for entirely opposite reasons: I've always known it, and never considered it special.

It's like everyone suddenly started waxing lyrically about margarine.

EVERYONE here will be guilty as charged, and they're lying if they say they aren't.

I am not guilty has charge, I use a knife or a spoon in the two case, that way I don't have to clean my finger and whatever input device I am trying to use. =p

Nope, I prefer peanut butter. Nutella just doesn't taste good to me at all. Sorry, no lie... and I tried it wayyyyy back in 2000 before it was popular and still preferred peanut butter. That being said I'm guilty of eating peanut butter out of the jar, both with and without utensils and bread.

Oh, we used to dream about eating Nutella from the jar...

But no jar. No Nutella. No bread.

Only Gulag.

Such is life...

 

[Story]

I also don't like Nutella...it's too sweet.
Okay that's a lie, I don't eat Nutella because I don't like it.
I just plain old dont like chocolate.

Speculoos on the other hand is yummy.

Y'know, it's weird. I like the idea of Nutella (nut-butter spread with some chocolate in it?! An invention 2nd in brilliance only to penicillin, it is!), but I was sorely disappointed by the actual product. But I know somewhere out there, there's a wonderful, perfect combination of spreadable nuts and cocoa out there waiting for me. I JUST HAVE TO FIND IT!!!

 

[Lawnmooer]

Meh...

Not a huge fan of Nutella (As far as chocolate spread's go, it's one of the nicer ones) but it's mainly because I'm neither a massive fan of chocolate nor of sandwiches (Toast, I use marmalade for the most part)

As far as eating Nutella out of the jar? Nope, never done it.

I have though, both drank/eaten straight out of a golden syrup can AND also used ham as a pseudo spoon for mayonnaise...

While I get the obvious joke of the comic (Trying to be civilised via not eating directly out of the jar but going in the opposite direction with the edible pseudo spoon) I can't help but shake the feeling I'm missing a less obvious/wider joke.

WRONG! I don't eat Nutella.

How do you live life? D:

You really should, man. It's like someone mixed heaven with chocolate and put it in a jar.

BTW, guys... A door is not a door when it's a-jar.

Haven and chocolate?
Never had haven, so I can't exactly argue on that part.
But when it comes to chocolate, Nutella is few parsecs away from actual chocolate taste
It is brown and sweet and smells kinda like chocolate- this is how close it comes to chocolate
Hell, the cocoa I make have more cocoa powder than jar of Nutella

Spoiler: For those who are interested

0.5l cup of cocoa=4 teaspoons of cocoa powder+2 teaspoons of sugar+300ml of water+200ml of milk
It can variate depending on my mood, but that is a baseline I usually stick to

But then again, I'm one of those strange people who likes mint infused black chocolate
So maybe I'm not right person to judge others

I don't think I understand the joke.

Though she is obeying the letter of the law, Erin is breaking the spirit because despite using bread, she's still eating straight from the jar. She was supposed to get a knife and spread the Nutella on the bread, not use a bread as an edible spoon to shovel Nutella into her mouth with.

....e'yeah, I believe this qualifies as a "weaksauce joke".

 

[Someone Depressing]

I just shovel it into my mouth.

Who even needs a spoon?

 

[K84]

Is Nutella new in countries outside Europe?, cuz here it's common sandwich/bread fodder since ages.
I don't get the attention it's getting lately.
And it's not that great, it's not like Speculoos.
*drool*

 

[Darth_Payn]

When it's A-jar. What else ya got, Nygma?

I once read "Book" back in high school - it's an undisputed masterpiece.

However the inevitable eventual Film adaptation will be widely-regarded as shit, having completely missed the point and cut out all the important details.

Yeah, I've heard about the same thing from it's book-on-tape version, Tape. The fact that it's on a CD was the beginning of its problems.

 

[Hammartroll]

I love the taste of Nutella, but I try my best to avoid it anyway because of it's sugar content. I have no idea how people and commercials get away with calling it a healthier alternative to peanut butter. Nutella is around 21g of sugar per serving and your typical peanut butter is like, only 2g. I refuse to even call it a nut spread, it's freaking candy.

It reminds me of how you can find granola bars now-a-days with chocolate chips infused and then dipped in fudge. Delicious yes, but healthy no, even if it got some granola in it, but I guess people get fooled anyway. They do the same thing to yogurt, it's like they turn granola bars into candy bars and yogurt into ice cream. I guess that's why Greek yogurt is really taking off, people are craving something real. /rant

It's probably been said, but who puts nutella on bread? The only acceptable way to eat it NOT directly from the jar is to hollow out a roll and fill it up with the stuff.

When does a door stops being a door?
Well, That is a good question, since the tolerance seems to be quite high.
For example, in my university we have a dictionary for words/terms good to know when studying there, and if you happen to look up "window", it will read as:

- "Another word for certain kinds of elevated doors, well-suited for short people with ladders. This does however not apply to windows located higher than level two."

 

[Andrew_C]

Nutella is frakking disgusting. But so is most peanut butter for that matter, why do they put so much sugar and salt in it? Peanut butter should just be peanuts, no sugar no salt, no preservative, no emulsifiers, just peanuts.

Tired of people quoting you yet? There's a downside to getting the first post.

OT: I can't eat nutella straight out of the jar since I have other people in the house who also eat it. But, I have spread nutella on one side of a piece of bread, and peanut butter on the other. Highly recommend it.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

I cannot relate because I've never had Nutella. I'm crazy enthusiastic for Peanut Butter for even I need toast.
