To ask where is the chocolate spread?!

Is it just my tesco that hasn't had any in stock in ages? Is it a brexit thing? I miss my chocolate spread on toast in the morning. Too tight to pay Nutella prices.

I have noticed this with supermarkets. We got our last jar of an odd brand of chocolate spread in Home Bargains. Try there.

DH said the same thing when he went to Tesco on Friday. Managed to get some in Aldi, but it's not as good.

Buy somewhere else or find recipe to make some

Not to boast but we had a jar in our Asda delivery last night!

Aldi has a good fake

BigWoollyJumpers · 08/02/2021 10:33

Nothing comes close to Nutella though..... it's Nutella or nothing here.

Skipsurvey · 08/02/2021 10:37

is it pancake day tomorrow?

Skipsurvey · 08/02/2021 10:39

no next week

Skipsurvey · 08/02/2021 10:39

blame brexit

Spied · 08/02/2021 10:42

I was thinking exactly the same thing about Tesco chocolate spread. It's not even showing as out of stock on the website. It's as if it never existed. Last two weeks I've had to buy Nutella (but got sent the added cocoa version which isn't as nice)
I've just finished doing our online shop this morning and again it's not there.

lazylinguist · 08/02/2021 10:43

Plenty in Aldi. Tastes just as nice as Nutella as well.

BigWoollyJumpers · 08/02/2021 10:47

Nothing to do with Brexit, everything to do with climate!

Turkey’s provinces produce 70% of the world’s hazelnut supply

Turkey has had several years of bad weather, and increased demand. Therefore the perfect storm for lack of supply.

Brogues · 08/02/2021 10:57

Another one who has notice the lack of chocolate spread in Tesco. I had to buy full price Nutella!

WineInTheWillows · 08/02/2021 10:59

We've had to move onto Cadbury.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 08/02/2021 11:01

Lidl has loads and it's nicer than Nutella

Buddrinker84 · 08/02/2021 11:05

Yes, we couldn't get any fro. Tesco's and again, I'm not paying for Nutella. Lidl had loads, but doesn't help if you don't need to go there. 🙈

Purpletomato · 08/02/2021 11:08

People stocking up for pancake day next week.

Emmelina · 08/02/2021 11:09

Sainsbury’s had the huge 1kg jars in last week.

ReviewingTheSituation · 08/02/2021 11:15

It's probably wherever all the tomato puree is. Haven't been able to get that for weeks (in Lidl and Waitrose - haven't ventured further afield than my 2 local supermarkets, just odd that both of those have been out of stock for so long).

Annabell80 · 08/02/2021 11:16

Asda round our way has loads and Sainsbury. Maybe try there if you have one close to you.

StrawberrySquash · 08/02/2021 11:16

Sainsbury's had own label, but when I bought it years ago it was horrible. Nutella was on special offer though, £2 for a 400g jar.

SofiaMichelle · 08/02/2021 11:20

It's vile stuff and therefore YABU. Grin

I don't know, OP, but I've noticed a few other things missing recently and also that some things seem to have rocketed up in price!

thismeansnothing · 08/02/2021 11:21

Plenty in the supermarket where I work 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️
