The whole thing is based on a series of Hostess Fruit Pie ads that ran in the comics in the '80s, where the hero would defeat a minor villain by offering him the fruity goodness and then capturing him (or her, at least one villain was a woman) while he (or she) was distracted.

About the time of World War Hulk, there was a fan-edit of one of the pages where Iron Man in the Hulkbuster armor also used Hostess Fruit Pies against the Hulk. :) Sadly, I can't find the image.... :( So I was sure one of my players would attempt to pull off a Hostess Fruit Pie victory. :)
That is one of those little things I'd love to happen in the MCU, maybe where hulk is rampaging, lands next to a guy about to eat one and he offers it to the hulk.
