Item #33 - A Jar of Hazelnut Spread

Now why would I be throwing out a jar of Hazelnut Spread?  How about because it's not good for you!!  My kids used to have this on toast in the morning.  I liked it every now and again.  Sure it was chocolate, but it was also hazelnuts.  Had to be good for you. Right?  Wrong-o!!  In one tablespoon of chocolate hazelnut spread there is 11 grams of sugar! A toast-full of hazelnut spread is the same as eating a whole chocolate bar.  Bleccch.  Who needs that in the morning? Go back to peanut butter!!  PB has 1 gram of sugar per tablespoon.  The non-processed stuff, even less!!  Happy Saturday!
