Honestly, Faldage, the first thing I thought of was a candy bar--and then I remembered: Oh, that's a Zagnut.
What does 'zaf' mean? I'll have to reread this thread because you proably already instructed us and I glided past that definition...will go check right this instant. In fact, what does 'zag' mean?
