It cost the same as a jar of peanut butter.<br /><br />Peanut butter is used as anti-famine paste as it is incredibly energy dense (more energy dense than Nutella by approx 400 odd KJ per 100 grams). And because we live in the west and have a huge problems with obesity, and not on the starving desert plains, I don't think this is a positive.

And really, I only started buying peanut butter for my boys now that they are older. I love love love nutella, but I agree that it feels like a dessert. I don't use it to make sandwiches for the boys. I think of it as a dessert, so sometimes give it as a special treat, or have some myself. But not often.
