  1. Online like nemlig. Com in Denmark and bilka.dk is more expensive than in the shop I think, but Denmark is very expensive

  2. We used to have a tax on nuts. It was removed in 2020 but I guess Ferrero forgot to pass on the savings to us consumers 🙂

  3. High VAT (25% on everything) + a sugar/chocolate tax (~3.5 eur pr. Kg)

    Besides that, Danes has a lot of spending power, so premium products are often set higher simply to get more profit as we pay without much hassel (or drives to Germany to boarder shop)

  4. the online stores are quite expensive, and denmark has “health” taxes particularly on products like nutella high in fat and sugar

  5. The Netherlands seems expensive at first glance, but in practice, many people only buy A-brand items when they’re discounted, typically by 25–50%. Most popular A-brand products are on sale every 3–8 weeks within the same supermarket. And most Dutch shop at different supermarkets based on these discounts.

    List prices in the Netherlands tend to be higher than in other countries, partly because discount-driven buying is so common. At least, that’s what I read.

    A more accurate comparison would be between “avg price paid” and “list price”, but I doubt such data is readily available.

  7. I made this chart to highlight how high prices have gotten in Denmark—just across the sound in Sweden, prices are often less than half.

  10. It’s gonna get way worse, Turkey had a very bad harvest this year and just yesterday they shutdown all operations of ferrero inside the country. I expect the prices to soar within few months.

  11. Inb4 someone picks up a charge for smuggling Nutella.

  12. Better question is why Nutella is so expensive in Poland where salaries are a lot lower than in other countries on chart.

  14. Please use better colors next time. Barely readable in the dark. Now imagine people with sight disabilities

  16. I have serious questions about the colour choices here…

  17. Dumb American question: y’all sell Nutella by the kg?? Or is this like foodservice sizes?

  18. They want to spare the populace from the horror that is Nutella.

  20. Maybe they import it from Canada where prices are equally as high.

  21. How much is a 350g jar of nutella in Denmark? Finding it hard to nail it down from briefly browsing online

    Edit: figured it out, identical prices to Ireland, was just curious

  22. The question is why the data sources are relatively expensive Danish stores. Make ChatGPT explain its reasoning.

  23. Well, at least Denmark has Nutella. Here in Spain we have Nocilla.

  24. It’s mostly sugar! Is sugar targetted by the gov to help reduce its use?

  29. As a Dane and massive Nutella fan – I just changed my vacation plans to Belgium.
