I feel like an evil person for spoiling the fondue joke, but if you insist...

Warning for fondue spoilers after this point, which is the weirdest warning ever.

Howard Stark is hinted at to be something of a lady's man. So while flying a plane through German airspace and being shot at, he calmly asks Peggy if she'd like to go out for fondue. She doesn't answer him directly.

Later, a woman comes on to Steve and Peggy is jealous. Steve weakly retorts, "But what about you and Howard and... the fondue?" She looks at him like an idiot.

Cut to Howard Stark explaining, "Fondue is bread and cheese, my friend."

"But I thought... I don't understand."

"The minute you think you know what goes on inside a dame's head is when your goose is well and truly cooked."

I may be off in the exact wording. But it has set off an avalanche of fondue related jokes already because... Steve thought fondue was sexual innuendo. I'm not sure if that's a testament to the Stark ability to make things sound dirty or proof of Steve's obliviousness. Maybe both/
