Banana bread pudding Nutella microwave safety warning

The little Nutella jar is not microwave safe.

After 1m15s in the microwave, a huge hole melted through the bottom and a weird mass of solid, cooked Nutella grew from it.

If you're wondering why I put a tiny plastic jar of Nutella in the microwave for so long... It's rock hard when cold and melts at a MUCH higher temperature than you think (than I thought). It takes a minute to get to peanut butter consistency. Which isn't quite soft enough to spread on bread pudding.

CU- if not by microwave, how exactly are we supposed to get the rock hard Nutella from the teeny tiny jar to the pudding? Hammer and chisel it out?

This new style of Hobibears is not barefoot/minimalist

This is my 6th pair of Hobibears. I have a variety of styles from slip on sneakers to winter boots. They all have the sufficiently wide toe box and thin, flexible soles. They are also all size 47 and fit the same.

The toe box on these is *barely* bigger than normal. The soles are higher on the sides, so your toes are squeezed and cradled in place. The soles are also an inch thick and stiff as a board. I'm flexing my foot back as much as I can in the photo. The soles do not move.

And on top of that, they run *huge*. They are a full size bigger than every other pair of Hobibears I have despite all being 47.

I love the full leather (it looks and feels genuine (it's not)), "normal" sneaker look, but they feel *nothing* like barefoot shoes should.

If keeping your toes unsqueezed is important to you, do not buy these.
