When we were young they would have a canned food drive at school , 

I would always put the cans of Lima beans and sliced beets in the box , I hated them along with liver , 

So  with all the food you have in your house today ,  what will be the last thing you would eat before it was the Pets :)

Stay safe

Overnight Oats. I don't hate oatmeal, I just don't have the organization and executive function to decide tonight that I want oatmeal tomorrow. If I were Mitch Hedburg, I'd have declined the frozen banana now, and only later would have realized I wanted a regular banana.

Helped Dad clear out his cousin's estate this past year.  Somehow a three pack of sardines got over to my house.  Now this would be no problem, I love sardines and anchovies in the right dish. However....

Cousin died two or three years before we started to clear out the house.  No clue how long he had the sardines before he died.  No clue why we haven't thrown them out

Probably something mysterious that's been hiding out in the back of the fridge for an unknown period of time....

Potted meat. I love the stuff but no one else in my family does and it's part of the emergency stash hidden in my house.

We bought a few mini meatloafs at the grocery when they were on a ridiculous sale. Ate one and froze the other 3-5. It wasn’t very good. 

 

Otherwise it will probably be tbe cococut curry sauce my wife got a few years ago.

I have a lifetime supply of Vegimite (one small, open jar).

I'm an omnivore. There's not a piece of food in the house I won't eat and enjoy!

Lived in Australia for a while. Accurate.

Just based on the amount I have, fish sticks. I like them fine, but I bought a pretty huge bag of them at Aldi a few months ago. There's a lot left.

Coconut flakes (for baking)

The coconut flakes and potted meat are both likely candidates. Perhaps the celery stew that I'm genuinely curious about, but I get irrationally weirded out by imported tinned food that I think may have been made under a different set of health expectations or just with a different set of tastes in mind. Even though I've come across some great stuff that way.

Maybe the hijiki seaweed, though I hope I'd break that out during novelty and not desperation.

There's a spinach pizza with tomato sauce in my freezer that I didn't buy but somehow inherited.

Well, since my first thought (the cat, and the cat food) has already been posted, I guess it's the bag of split peas that have been used for icing injuries for about the last 10 years.

Funny thing is, they're probably fine.

Exactly this!  Not picky at all.

If circumstances were dire enough, there isn't anything that I wouldn't eat.

 

Outside of that though, sweet potatoes and their evil cousins, yams. Also squash.

I'd rather eat pine cones.

It's a tossup between the canned haggis and the can of grass jelly we have in the back of the bottom pantry shelf. 

We already ate the "Mutant Gelatinous Coconut". Not kidding, that's verbatim what it said on the label. 

We have an awesome international market in town.

When my great aunt died in 1983 she had canned water chestnuts in her pantry from 1954.

My wife is from the Philippines. There are things in my fridge and freezer that I don't know what they are. 
 

Of the things I can ID it would be the small dried fish. They are about the size of a quarter. They smell like dead body's that have ripened in the tropical heat for a week.

I am sure you have some of those boiled eggs with a baby chicken inside !

The freeze dried foods, enough to feed the crew for about a week. Not because they are nasty, but because they keep longer and they are fairly expensive.

Ahhh yes the cross between a hard boiled egg and a uncooked chicken Mc nugget. AKA Balut. 
 

The dried fish is worse.
