And now a moment with Senor Onion.
This morning we asked him if he wanted nutella on his crumpet. There happened to be a brand-new jar in the cupboard that had not been opened yet. He remarked that "the oldtella had been put in the rubbish and now we have a jar of new tella"
Mr. Jenner opened the jar and Senor Onion smelled the contents and said, "it smells chocolately and tella-y."

Nutella: smells of tella.

Ah, I see you are in the camp that pronounces it "new-tella". We say "nut-ella" around here.

We fight about this in my office all the time.

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

we say it both ways.
We are casual in that regard with language. (it probably angers some portion of the world)

Ah that explains everything. It is nut-ella. In England, anyway.

[sahara-harp.livejournal.com]

Because it is made of nuts, not newts.

Love it! And you'll be glad you are documenting this here, because years down the line you'll have forgotten this.
