In 2007, an Italy-based, American blogger called Sara noted that were many days in the year to appreciate certain things, but not one for Nutella. And so she created one!
Recruiting her pal Michelle for help, they picked the date February the 5th and spread the word.
They did a good job as their Facebook fans now stand at over 42,000, and people worldwide set aside time to enjoy World Nutella Day on February 5th every year.
Personally, I think the excuse to eat as much Nutella as I want is a very good one!

Alternatively, if you’re short on time, just take the easy option: a jar of Nutella + a spoon = mmmmm :p
And for all of you who do eat Nutella straight from the jar, I think you may be wanting one of these…
