Hostess is a brand of desserts that are irresistible to villains.
History
Many heroes have already captured criminals using the desserts, who, despite being arrested, were happy to be able to eat the treat. Incredibly, the Joker is immune.
Notes
- Hostess was a real food licensed by Interstate Bakeries and before by Continental Baking Company. It is notable for its comic book advertising in the late 1970s and first half of the 1980s. These ad pages contained one-page stories depicting DC and Marvel characters using Hostess desserts to capture supervillains (particularly Hostess fruit pies, Twinkies and cup cakes).
