History

The Zagnut bar was launched in 1930,[1] by the D. L. Clark Company of western Pennsylvania, which also made the Clark bar.[2][3][4] Clark changed its name to the Pittsburgh Food & Beverage company and was acquired by Leaf International in 1983.[5] The Zagnut brand was later part of an acquisition by Hershey Foods Corporation in 1996.[6]

Bon Appétit, in a story about nostalgic candy, said, "We’re honestly flummoxed that Zagnuts aren’t more popular."[1] Conversely, a columnist in The Des Moines Register compared it to a Rose Art crayon, claiming, "No one would ever purposely choose a Zagnut."[7]
