Legitimately surprised to see a realistic image of the food on the can. Looks…not great

I wouldn't mind trying it, if it was new. Probably great with garlic bread after an edible

Golden chicken flavored sauce does *not* sound palatable

That chicken was probably born in 1983. That's crazy to think about

Although it won't have any microbes in it (assuming the can is still completely sealed), it'll look and taste awful. Sealed cans only serve as a barrier to germs. They're not some kind of time-halting magic chamber. Chemical reactions still proceed inside. There's a reason manufacturers eventually started stamping "Best Before" dates on them. And no, it wasn't to fool people into throwing out perfectly good 10-year-old cans of food.

Sheeeit. I remember those. There was a cereal too! And a cartoon, and candy, and ….

It's definitely not edible as the cans dented near the seal, but it's still super cool!

I wonder what golden chicken flavored sauce was. I didn't think Chef Boyardee ever made anything except tomato sauce.

Ah yes, authentic Italian Golden Chicken Sauce with Pac Man pasta. Just like my nonna used to make in Naples!

A. Keep it intact as a collector's item?

Or

B. Make a video showing what's inside and share it with the world?

Input welcome.

Found a link from 2015, seems to have held up well, surprisingly not disintegrated. Looks gross but I don't imagine it looked that great to begin with...

I had a similarly aged box of Kraft dinner / Mac’n’cheese I posted here.I eventually opened it - the cheese packet smell was startlingly bad, very glad I not only didn’t eat it but didn’t give it to someone else to eat.

I did however send the box for free to this guy, as he evidently collects them…!

Who knows, maybe there is a similar chef-boy-ar-dee can connoisseur!

Has it really been 40 years since they stopped making golden chickens

It's interesting that they had 15 oz cans 39 years ago. There is a theory out the window that I almost had.

What a find! My historical/nutrition side is curious on what the ingredients say, is it full of chemicals that are now banned or anything?

I'm not going to lie, I kind of want that, but it looks like it could be worth a decent penny to the right collector.

Yes that's a real concern because the metal does dissolve slowly into water, especially with the salt content. If I do open it, I might just take a little taste to see what it's like. After all this can might be the very last of its kind in existence.

I worked in a house once that had several boxes of cake mix and a few cans of various foods that all expired in the 80s. Just sitting in their pantry right behind a few newer things. Very odd.

I used to eat this stuff all the time when I was little. It was really good! They had red and green cans too, which where like Spaghetti-O's and Spaghetti-O's with meatballs, but this one was by far the best.
There were little games on the inside of the label too, so sometimes my mom would peel it off and give it to me.
