It's my first Christmas cover so it's a little bit thrilling. :) (Oh, first indie Christmas cover, so the first Christmas cover I had a hand in creating.)<br />And that Nutella label says "not for retail". LOL. But the bakery store still sold it.

But then... isn't that what every grocery store does? We buy 50 lb boxes of apples for $12, but my grocery store sells them for 2.79 a lb. Hmmm....<br /> I think part of their objection might have been that if the store created inedible or awful-tasting items, it would reflect badly on Nutella. (Assuming all they had was food, and not actual mugs or Tshirts with the brand name.)<br /> I don't know... I'm still thinking about this. Coca Cola protects their brand, but you can find Coke items everywhere... Tshirts and Coca Cola label rip offs that spell out other slogans. <br /> I guess I would have done the same as Nutella, erring on the side of protecting the brand, rather than risk someone turning off a whole batch of customers with badly made Nutella-flavored food.Mary Jane Hathawayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996627730074514978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-70986573123589882472015-10-11T20:20:45.848-04:002015-10-11T20:20:45.848-04:00Me, too.

I remember watching a documentary where they gave natives in a remote village items like raspberry and lemon jelly they put in doughnuts, banana flavoring, mango flavoring, etc. They couldn't identify any of them, because they'd only had the original. We learn to call flavors "peach" or "banana", just like we learn what colors are. Made me feel more normal about not liking raspberry flavoring, but loving raspberries.Mary Jane Hathawayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996627730074514978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-34776482519960520382015-10-11T19:35:50.287-04:002015-10-11T19:35:50.287-04:00That was the weird thing, Ruthy.

I'm not sure how much Nutella is actually hazelnut. It tastes purely chocolate to me. <br /> Weird about the bakery!!

Apparently the parent company was not happy and sued them.

Now, if I had a wood fired pizza maker in my pantry, I would be in big trouble. <br />As for eating the whole jar, I have one child who is a Nutella nut. And for Christmas every year, I put a little jar in her stocking. Because having your own jar is a beautiful thing.
