Does Rhubar count as a portmanteau of rhubarb and bar?

I made some strawberry rhubarb oatmeal bars, so this question is super duper important to determine how cutesy I can be about it

My first thought is that it sounds like a portmanteau of rhubarb and fubar. Which is bad.

That would be a backromanteau?

Iraq fucked you up, huh?

Considering my country famously refused to take part in the Iraq war and declared me unfit for service during draft (which was compulsory), that would be quite strange.

Based on reading the Wikipedia article, I think it would count as a "partial blend", where you use one whole word and one partial word. In this case rhu from rhubarb, plus bar. So I think you're in the clear.
