like 8 year old dried cranberries. they tasted like dust but they were also the best thing I've ever tasted because as that point I hadn't eaten in a couple days

Some soup mix bag that was a couple years past the date. Tasted pretty much the same like fresh ones.

I found a yogurt in the back of the fridge at work left by a guy who had retired. it was unopened and 14 months past it's best buy date. tasted fine.
My mom had a 5 gallon can of honey that was maybe 10 years old. it had solidified and we had to put it on a burner on the stove to get some out of it. it was dark brown but tasted like honey.
I've had canned foods that were decades old and fine.
I bought some freeze dried emergency foods and they had a use by date of 7 years after I got them. though freeze dried food is good pretty much forever is sealed with an oxygen absorbing packet. everything was fine except the granola that had gone rancid.
I found a frozen vacuum sealed pork roast in the back of my fridge that was 4 years old. it had gone rancid so I did not eat it.
same with a whole duck. it was at least 2 years old and also rancid.

found this in my mother-in-laws house after she died. it was unopened and from 1986. I tasted the powder but did not eat it. it had almost no chocolate taste at all.

I had a bottle of 2006 Bailey's Irish Cream
the cream, alcohol, and sugar all separated, the cream was sweet flecks, and there was a sickly sweet taste to everything.
I didn't finish it and just threw out the bottle, there was a thick sugary whitish yellow sludge at the bottom

did you keep the cans? that chocolate one is in perfect condition. would be cool to just shove your cocoa powder in it and use it as a novelty container.

2 years ago, I ate a cereal bar from 1994, and a box of water from the same age. It was inside of an emergency car care kit that was sitting in the garage for 10+ years.
It tasted great, the water box was bad though.

i drank a bottle of sake my grandpa had for potentially dozens of years. i only learned much later on that sake isnt supposed to be black. i think it mustve turned to vinegar or something. it had a taste similar to soy sauce. i drank the entire bottle.

Does Wine count? I had some 35 year old one I found in my parents cellar and it still tasted fine. Nobody else wanted to try it though and the color was a bit weird.

Some aged cheese that was allegedly older than me, so maybe 20+. It was excellent.

I assume old spices don't count. The oldest I can think of was a 5 year expired can of mackerel. It tasted like normal canned mackerel.

Friends and I passed around a bottle of Ancient Age bourbon one of them had and didn't realize it was from the 1970s until after we finished it. It was pretty good
