Nutella contains palm oil, and in 2016 the European Food Safety Authority warned that refining palm oil at high temperatures can create compounds linked to cancer risk in animal studies.
It was not a ban, but it was enough to raise quiet concern among scientists and consumers alike. Ferrero responded by stating it tightly controls temperatures and raw materials, maintaining that Nutella remains within legal safety limits. The discussion remains scientific, cautious, and far from settled.
And yet, Nutella’s popularity in the United States continues to grow. Data from Statista and Nielsen shows it now appears in more than one-third of American households.
So how are products like Nutella actually made?
Captain Discovery steps inside modern factories to examine the processes behind creamy spreads, stretchable string cheese, razor-thin aluminum foil, and mustard built for shelf life and consistency. From heat and chemistry to precision rolling and emulsions, this episode explores how everyday foods and materials are engineered — and why questions often follow popularity.
