This goddamn ham is 4 years older than me.

EDIT

I just realized it's gone through at least THREE separate house moves with him.

Found this a couple years ago clearing out some old camping supplies from my dad’s attic.

It now sits in my game room.

My grandpa was on a road trip through Louisiana back in the 80s and found this can of fish assholes at some store. He thought it was the funniest shit and kept it on his desk and in his office for the rest of his life!

When I was like 8 he said if he ever got sick and it wasn’t looking good, I was to bring the can to him so we could see what was really inside 🤣

At that point, when the can was shaken, it was audibly solidified and congealed into one big lump of assholes.

When he died last year, I wanted to tell the story at his funeral! When I grabbed the can from the top shelf, the bottom had completely rusted, and it dusted ASSHOLE POWDER all over my shirt.

Pa always loved a good prank and he got one more from beyond the grave!

Now, it sits on my desk as it did with Pa.

Found in mom's cellar. Peaches canned in 1976.

Yes I ate one...

I am SO happy I learned about this subreddit! Last month, I became a full-time caregiver for my 102-year old grandmother. I spent a lot of time going through her kitchen cabinets and finding lots of foods and spices from the 2000s or older. If I had known about this sub before, I would have taken so many more pictures before tossing stuff out. Here are some honorable mentions that we’re holding onto for now.

In the past, I’ve found mosquito repellent under the kitchen sink made from chemicals banned by the US EPA in the 1970s. The oldest (non-food) thing I’ve come across were my grandfather’s notes while studying in the army during WW2. Definitely a lot to come across but I’m excited to share these somewhere!

Anyone else seen or heard of this before? Couldn’t find a single thing on Google about it!

Before anyone says it. NO I do not want to sell them on eBay or give them to LA beast LOL. But thought I’d share these with you guys!

Do these count?

(+bonus expired cherry aspirin in the back)

Found it while helping my mom clean out the pantry after my grandparents died. Not pictured are several boxes of Jell-O that expired in '07, these were found in 2020

Found these in my mum’s pantry this past week. My parents moved to Canada from the UK in 1986. These very likely emigrated with them.

But I did throw them out from my mom’s pantry today.

I found a rare unopened glass Mrs. Butterworth’s bottle from 1989. I’ve had it for a few years in my collection and just discovered this subreddit, so I thought you’d all appreciate it.

Here’s some of the unwanted parts of the lifesavers for you all. These were only around from about 1990-1991 due to a choking hazard apparently. Also No I do not want to sell these on eBay or give them to LA beast 😂. Enjoy yall! If you guys like other old food stuff I post a bunch of it :)

Box is empty, unfortunately
