So today I was digging through my desk drawer looking for a pen, and out popped this ancient, half-melted chocolate bar from who knows when. At first, I was like, 'Treasure!' but then I realized it was more like a science experiment. Definitely not edible anymore, but it did bring back memories of when I used to stash snacks for 'emergencies.'

It made me wonder, what’s the weirdest or funniest thing you’ve found in a random spot at home or work? Bonus points if it’s food-related!

That chocolate bar story is hilarious - desk drawers really are the Bermuda Triangle for snacks! Once, I found a bag of popcorn in my couch cushions that was so old it had turned into this weird rock-like clump. Definitely not a snack anymore, but it made me laugh thinking about how many times I must have sat there watching movies without realizing it was hiding in plain sight.

It’s funny how these forgotten food treasures turn into little time capsules. Anyone else ever find something that made them question their own snack hoarding habits?

Haha, that chocolate bar sounds like it’s seen better days! I once found a granola bar in my backpack that was so old it had basically turned into a rock. Definitely not a snack emergency I wanted to deal with. But I totally get the stash-for-emergencies vibe - sometimes it’s more about the comfort of knowing it’s there than actually eating it.

Has anyone else here found something that was surprisingly still edible after ages? Or is it mostly just forgotten snack fossils like ours?
