Nutella maker tells US regulator it's 'not just dessert anymore' to tweak nutrition labelGETTY IMAGES Times have changed with the chocolate-hazelnut spread now a popular morning treat. The Italian company petitioned the FDA in 2014 to change its serving size to one tablespoon, which would put it on par with honey, jam and jelly. The UK, France and New Zealand, among other countries, use the one-tablespoon serving size of 15 grams, according to Ferrero. The RACC designation helps determine a serving size. In 1993, the FDA ruled that Nutella fell into the product category called "other dessert toppings."
