Nutella must be the peanut butter of Europe.
Here in the states, I only see Nutella in the itty bitty jars, while we buy peanut butter in half-gallon containers.
I like Nutella quite a bit, especially on fruit, it's sweeter than peanut butter. For sandwiches, peanut butter is the favorite though.
I developed a taste for peanut butter and mayonaise sandwiches as a kid and I still enjoy them. I introduced them to my girls when they were young enough that they also like them, with a glass of milk. However, when I mention that to adults, they typically cringe. So it seems a lot of our tastes are developed as kids -- when we just don't know that we're not supposed to like things that.
As Roger was eating the duck egg with the gooey middle, I was thinking you'd get few Americans to enjoy that. We like our boiled eggs hard boiled all the way through, with salt please.
