Can I put this on my resume?

Recently, I attended a company sponsored event - a tailgate and Stanford/Navy football game. In true Indian girl style, I offered to bring something - my homemade salsa. And sure, I've received a marriage proposal or two from people who have enjoyed my cooking (mostly from women), but never a compliment from a CEO. The CEO of Kensington complimented me on my salsa! So, can I put this on my resume?

If not, I have great leverage at work when I'm in a tough situation. I can imagine myself in a meeting, receiving push back for a project or task...at that point, I would merely exclaim, "Well the CEO likes my salsa. So you better get my $hit done!"

Okay, maybe not. But I still thought it was cool.
