Zuck clearly put it there as a joke/Easter egg. I know it's weird, but dystopian multibillionnaires whose life's work undermines the very foundations of democracy around the world can have a (bad) sense of humor too.

    He probably thought it'd humanize him to be so quirky and silly!

    I have a sneaking suspicion that Zuck hides bottles of Sweet Baby Rays around the house and makes you chug them like a frat boy hazing with Smirnoff Ice.

    It's a bit of self referencial humor. Like 15 years ago zuck did a live stream or something. On that Livestream he kept awkwardly talking about how much he loves sweet baby Ray's bbq sauce.

    I think he did that because knows how detached he comes off as. He was a weirdo before he became a billionaire, and being a part of a separated class of society only made that worse. He also knows how everyone on earth thinks that he's a distrustful person. Plus he's just clearly not comfortable being on camera.

    It was basically a failed attempt to come off as relatable and down to earth by sharing something that he has a passion for. Which apparently is grilling. I get it, I like grilling too. But I won't ever be tasked with trying to use that one interest I have as my entire public personality.

    He tried something like that before. The reason he wears plain looking tshirts and pants is because it makes him come off as "like one of us" and that he remembers that he came from nothing like the rest of us. But then a few years ago it came out that the black Tshirts he wears costs like $400 each and so does the rest of his outfit.

    Do you think it might now be an in joke for all his adoring fans, lol. He doesn't seem like the type to have a plan to do this, so is it his marketing Dept trying to make him seem funny and relatable? The level of stage management seems preposterous for such a bad joke prop. Do they struggle that much to make him relatable or is Facebook just really bad at or and marketing as they don't need to be due to network effect driving their growth rather than product or traditional marketing.

    Both Musk and Zuckerberg have those lidless, reptilian eyes. Black eyes . . . like a doll's eyes. And when they come at ya, they don't even seem to be livin' . . .

    You're telling me people don't have tactical barbecue sauce bottles strategically placed around their house for easy access for when you're eating ribs and need a little extra sauce?

    This is the same thing Jensen did on an Nvidia stream, but with spatulas. Apparently it was an intentional social media marketing scheme.

    "smoking meats" seems like something people who cook their own food might say, I'll say that.

    That's Sweet Baby Ray's. Their slogan is "The Boss is the Sauce". Did Zuck ceded control to molasses and seasonings?
