Jack Dorsey said Mark Zuckerberg once cooked him a goat that he had slaughtered himself
Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey says Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg had him around for dinner once and served him under-cooked goat that he slaughtered himself with a stun gun and knife.
Dorsey revealed details of the dinner in an interview with Rolling Stone when he was asked to describe his most ‘memorable encounter’ with the Facebook boss.
‘Well, there was a year when he was only eating what he was killing. He made goat for me for dinner. He killed the goat,’ Dorsey said.
‘He killed it before. I guess he kills it. He kills it with a laser gun and then the knife. Then they send it to the butcher.’
When the reporter questioned the laser gun element, Dorsey said: ‘I don’t know. A stun gun.’
‘They stun it, and then he knifed it. Then they send it to a butcher. Evidently in Palo Alto there’s a rule or regulation that you can have six livestock on any lot of land, so he had six goats at the time.
‘I go, ‘We’re eating the goat you killed?’ He said, ‘Yeah.’ I said, ‘Have you eaten goat before?’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, I love it.’ I’m like, ‘What else are we having?’ ‘Salad.’ I said, ‘Where is the goat?’ ‘It’s in the oven.’
‘Then we waited for about 30 minutes. He’s like, ‘I think it’s done now.’ We go in the dining room. He puts the goat down. It was cold. That was memorable. I don’t know if it went back in the oven. I just ate my salad.’
Dorsey later said he didn’t know what the reporter was going to do with those details.
‘But hopefully that’s not the headline. Revenge is a dish best served warm. Or cold,’ he said.
While it’s not clear when the dinner took place, Dorsey was referring to Zuckerberg’s personal challenge that he set for himself in 2011.
The Facebook CEO vowed to only eat animals that he had killed himself in a bid to learn more about where his food came from.
‘I think many people forget that a living being has to die for you to eat meat, so my goal revolves around not letting myself forget that and being thankful for what I have,’ Zuckerberg told Fortune at the time.
‘This year I’ve basically become a vegetarian since the only meat I’m eating is from animals I’ve killed myself. So far, this has been a good experience.
‘I’m eating a lot healthier foods and I’ve learned a lot about sustainable farming and raising of animals.’
