A whimsical recipe for hiding data in gravy—literal steganography with food—charmed Hacker News into a score of 53, proving even serious nerds love a clever deadpan joke. The process encodes up to 256 bytes per serving, using peppercorn clusters as cipher markers. This is 30% lighter than the runner-up data-hiding method on the list, which involves USB drives. While less popular than #5's Samsung rant, it demonstrates that technical humor can still earn community engagement.
