Nutella-lovers might have probably heard this by now, but yes, the latest scoop is that our very own beloved Nutella might have the disadvantageous potential to cause Cancer. A report by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has declared that palm oil – one of the key ingredients used in the Nutella for its smooth texture and considerably long shelf life – to be more carcinogenic than any other oil. Even though Ferrero, Nutella’s manufacturer is fighting back the claim slammed on it, this news has had an adverse effect as profits have already taken a 3% hit. We just hope that the issue is resolved after giving highest priority to consumers’ food safety.
