I have never gotten grease with my pads before but I would imagine the grease is for the slide pins.

The grease is for putting inbetween the pad and the brake shim

Make sure you dont get the grease on the pad itself, just the backs.

It supposed to stop squealing and called anti- squeal grease sometimes although I think its just black antiseize. I tried it on the sliders in the past and it gums up so I wouldn't anymore. It is not a smooth grease and looks like it has metal in it.
You can buy a tube of synthetic caliper pin/brake squeal grease for a couple bucks. Its clear blue and made by versa chem. It should be enough for at least 10 brake jobs. I like it
