Someone Found A 'Wildly Corroded' Can Of Spider-Man Pasta From 1995—And The Contents Have Not Aged Well

Remember when macaroni used to come in shapes?

Or the times when mac & cheese came in different colors?

The 90s were a wild time. How do we think those things have held up?


The answer is—poorly.

Twitter user Dinosaur Dracula found a can of Chef Boyardee Spider-Man pasta from 1995.

And step-by-step, he began to open it.


After getting through the rust, what he found could rival the Venom symbiote.

And which also took the shape of the can.

The congealed mass bore little resemblance to any sort of shapely pasta, but if you look closely, you can see a fossil.

This particular can of Spider-Man pasta is a year older than Tom Holland—the Marvel Cinematic Universe's current Peter Parker—who was born in 1996.





Our friend, Dinosaur Dracula, has also reportedly done this before with a 30-year-old can of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles pasta.

And has inspired other people to find items in their pantry that have been there for far too long.






How have we let these things stick around in our houses for this long?

While we all have downtime, please, raid your pantries. Put the things dated pre-2020 out of their misery.

If you're feeling nostalgic, there are better things to try than old canned goods. The Vintage Candy Company offers gift boxes, available here, for a variety of occasions and decades.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
