Mr. Goodbar
Nutty chocolate bar
Mr.
Goodbar is a chocolate-and-peanut candy bar made by Hershey.
The name became culturally loaded after the 1975 novel *Looking for Mr.
Goodbar* and its 1977 film adaptation, about a woman who frequents singles bars seeking casual sex—making looking for Mr. Goodbar a dark metaphor for dangerous romantic pursuit.
