Food past its sell by date.

Clearing out my cupboard at school I came across these bananas.

I knew about the straight one - I discovered it in September 2014 where it must have spent the summer holidays.

The curved one, I reckon, first entered the cupboard in June 2015.

No mould, no staining of the surfaces that they rested on.

Amazing!

Light 'em up and take in the smoke...

Looks like your avatar.

I'll get me coat.

Unless anyone has been into my locked drawers at work, I expect to get the same sight when I return. It had apples and bananas in there.

When they need to exhume a nun or monk, and find they have mummified instead of rotting, they decide they must have been saints, free from sin and thus free from corruption.

Those are sainted bananas!

There's 7cans of Worthington in my cupboard 6 years out a date. I put 8cans of lager in the bin that was 4 year out a date and the binman put them in his cab iI didn't ask if they drank them

@vernon you could go into production... I love dried bananas, but haven't seen them in shops in years!

The MIL recently found a jar of Dijon mustard in the back of the fridge recently that's older than my eldest daughter .... who's 23 in a couple of weeks time!
We've kept the jar.

Last Christmas I drank my last bottle of Federation Brewery's Christmas ale - stamped best before Jan 2005.

I can't find my mummified apple. It had shrunk to the size of a strawberry.

I moved a set of drawers that our fruit sits on, and at some point a banana had fallen behind and looked like yours though it had left a small mark on the carpet. But no mould... Just dried!

I hope your last day goes well! Are others leaving too?

Shame that place has gone, I miss the aroma as I ride past.

There's probably still 4 cans of strong lager left where I buried them outside the Aberystwyth student's Union place one night in 1988. (Tennant's Extra I think they were/ are). They wouldn't let me in with them so I shoved them under some pines and threw some earth over them. I couldn't find them at the end of the night (who'd 'av thunk) and never managed to find them again. I should think they'd have matured quite nicely by now

I have nightmares to say the office was plagued by fruit flies !!! Oh apparently my 'desk' has been moved into a corner since I've been off - i.e. they move your draws and computer... barstewards...... I'll kick up a smelly stink if/when I go back.
