The inflatable Nutella jar is not edible.

— We were just lamenting the DFW food truck scene (with the loss of Zombie and The Wiener Man) when our faith in food-on-a-roll was restored: the Nutella truck.

The truck rolls through Dallas this week and weekend, giving away free samples. You may have heard of Ferrero, the makers of Nutella, who were slapped with a $3 million lawsuit for falsely claiming that Nutella was a healthy breakfast option. Two tablespoons will set you back 200 calories and contain 21 grams of sugar. You heard it here first second: Nutella is not a healthy breakfast snack.

Delicious? Absolutely. Good for you? No.

Now that we have that out of the way, here's how to get your skinny minnie to the truck to load up on some sugars:

Nuts for Nutella.
