Hi I’m from Germany and I recently discovered these different spreads other than peanut butter here that I found quite tasty.

One was a peanut butter chocolate spread from Reese’s who also makes my favorite candy Reese’s peanut butter cups.

And I found a chocolate cream that’s like Nutella but with crunchy pieces mixed in like the one in the image (tastes like Ovaltine powder or Whoppers candy and 55% of the ingredients is just sugar).

Nutella (/hazelnut spread) of course is very popular here but I rarely eat it. As a kid I used to love and be obsessed with this cookie butter from Lotus.

Other spreads I know would be Dulce de leche which is caramel flavored and popular in Latin America.

Is that something Americans would eat or does this sound very exotic/weird and they mostly stick to standard peanut butter?

    It’s growing. I work in a grocery, we’ve definitely gotten a lot more stuff in that section over the years, but most of it is variations on nut butters.
