    More info: Since the 90's Nutella has been going through changes and one of the major ones is that skimmed milk powder and sugar has been replacing cocoa, this has made Nutella a lot more sweeter and less intense , this has also produced a lighter color also the amount of hazelnuts has been reduced outside of Italy, so you don't get the same buttery mouth feel.

    I remember emailing Nutella regarding their palm oil usage. They responded with the "sustainable palm oil" schpeal. Instead of stopping there I continued doing research and found that there is basically no such thing as sustainable palm oil. "Sustainable" in this sense just means that the government owning those rainforests have earmarked the palm trees for being cut down for industry. The natural assumption is that they are farm grown but that is not true, they are still contributing to deforestation

      @@whyjay9959 no, it's not Greenpeace who certifies everything, it's rspo, the roundtable on sustainable palm oil. Many companies use them as a sneaky way to build the word " sustainable" in their product. All you need to do is a little bit of research and you find the truth. For example, I looked up " the meaning of sustainable palm oil" and found countless results, two of which from Greenpeace saying how sustainable palm oil is fake. " certified sustainable palm oil is a con" and " 5 problems with sustainable palm oil" and it explains deeper into everything, including rspo. And it's not just Greenpeace, an article from EIA, environmental investigation agency, which also clearly states the disturbing truth behind rspo. " palm oil watchdogs sustainability guarantee is still a destructive con" it's called. Please, please do your research before blaming Greenpeace, it barely took me any time to find this out, unlike this reply. Trust me, out of all the environment agencys/groups, Greenpeace is the one to believe. I'm a member and so get monthly updates and their connect magazines and trust them 100%

      Not a fan of adding water to the formulation, since it promotes the growth of bacteria.
      Instead, I'd use 4th or even 5th press olive oil to diminish or even cancel any "olive oil taste". I'm sure this would be even closer to the original formulation.
      I don't believe the original formulation included any other oil. As a manufacturer you always look for local ingredients to lower cost and palm and coconut oil back then, were probably hard to get, they had to pay freight, duties, irregular deliveries that would risk production and all that would have made it pricey.

    I'm living in hazelnut region of Turkey. News about child labour and human rights violation somewhat true depends on the province. However it is not widespread these days. Also definition of child labour here is kind of murky. Most of seasonal workers travel with their whole family and get daily wages depends on their capability. Although I can say that work itself is not dangerous or hard in most lands. I started to collect hazelnuts for our relatives when I was 12 years old. Hazelnuts I collected given to me by grandfather. Regulating whole economy is hard as well because most of the land where hazelnuts are produced owned by seperate local families where families sell it to merchants or directly to cooperative named "Fiskobirlik" which makes chocolate hazelnut spread much better than Nutella. Also quality of these spread would change widely depends on what kind of hazelnuts you are using but it changes cost of it as well.

    Quick maths: 40% in this Vs 13% in Nutella. So that's ~3x the quantity.
    At present Ferrero SPA (owner of Nutella) buys roughly 1/3rd of all hazelnuts produced around the world in one year.
    So if they were to adopt this method, they would have to buy ALL the hazelnuts produced around the world in one year.

In the last two decades, low prices has been driving farmers to get rid of hazelnut trees and experiment with other agricultural produce. An increase in hazelnut demand would quickly reverse this trend.

    " feels less nasty in your mouth" - that's probably because of not using palm oil. Somehow I don't think the artisans of Italy had palm oil at their disposal back when this stuff was invented. And sustainable-schmastainable, the stuff is culinarily and nutritionally garbage and poison. For a short while our local Costco carried a hazelnut paste that was based on normal edible oils (sunflower) and it was cheaper than the overbranded stuff. Well, I suspect someone pressured someone and this product is now gone. I don't buy Nutella and not because of price. I never pay my money for food that contains palm oil - there's just no need for that.

Nothing wrong with that. For deodorant I've been using good old barber alum, it's been used since Bible times. It lets your skin sweat but keeps it from stinking. No residue.

      Regarding saponification: a lot of commercial soaps are "made from" a blend of fats. One of the fats this mixture often "contains" is palm oil. :)

The notion that aluminum cookware and the like causes Alzheimer's disease has been pretty roundly debunked - but there *has* been correlation found between aluminum levels in the brain and progression of dementia. It's still unclear whether the link is causal, consequential or coincidental - but I prefer to play it safe and just rely on frequent washing.

    I remember when I was working at a small bakery I started making nut butter mixed with biscuits to eat with the amazing breads. Bourbon Cream & Hazelnut and Custard Cream & Almond worked the best. For me the key was using the pure oil of the actual nuts.

    Word of advice, the peeling of the hazel nuts is very important and you might want to add more sugar if prefer a more Nutella like flavour.

    For the gourmet version you could try using a conche. It is a type of food processor that grinds chocolate into a smoother paste by grinding it between 2 rocks. I think small ones are available but difficult to find.
    Edit: I saw Alex (french guy cooking) use one to make chocolate. He bought it from an Indian shop. And chefsteps used one to make pistachio butter. Which is similar to what Andong is doing here hazelnut butter basically.

    in italy is still both in plastic and glass recipients, and yes i agree nutella has worsened the taste because it has become more “commercial” in order to be buyed by all the world at a reasonable price. So no quality ingredients more and just artificial ingredients for sure... and very sugary but still delicious and addictive. If i can recommend you, i’m italian from Rome and i recently discovered a new italian brand by instagram who is going popular and it’s made with natural ingredients... it’s called Foodeat and they made a chocolate hazelnut spread similar to nutella but with natural ingredients, palm oil free, gluten free and it’s less sugary. It’s made with dark chocolate and hazelnuts so it tastes less sugary than regular nutella and i’m in love with it, it has a darker color and it’s more liquid! Btw, nutella is always nutella... a work of art🇮🇹😌
