Yeah as a Norwegian I’ve always been a bit weirded out when thinking about chocolate spread for more than two seconds. Tbf, I feel like you’re making it out to be more normal than it is (but idk how it is in Sweden or Denmark). Among adults I very very rarely see chocolate spread on bread. Among children however… Not great for their nutrition. I think most parents think “better they eat something than nothing” but I’d argue maybe that’s not always the case.
On another note: holy crap the regional chocolate spread (nugatti) is like 10 times better than nutella. Nutella households are weird.
I can’t remember which one I used last but if you look up a “healthy” one it’ll usually give you a better ratio of nuts to sugar. There are tons of recipes out there for homemade Nutella, so it’s kind of a process of trial and error to play with the ratios to find what you like best
I find the homemade stuff tastes way better since it’s more like hazelnut butter with chocolate

Big agree on Nugatti. It’s so much better. I feel similarly about kvikk lunsj over kitkat.
To be fair I definitely think Nutella used to have better ratios because it used to taste better.
I make my own now with far more hazelnuts
Never considered that possibility. Do you have a recipe? Would love to try.

yeah, it’s more a “we finally got them to eat something. calories are calories dammit” on our end.

Fuck no. That shit is vile
I’m pretty sure a little sugar is better than starving to death.
Yeah I mean I agree, and I don’t judge parents for “giving in”. I was a really difficult kid myself when it comes to food.
