A Twitter user from New York, Matt took to Twitter sharing pictures of a can of 25-year-old Spider-Man pasta. Yes! you read it right, for more than two decades it has been just lying around.

He shared the photo with the caption, "Opening a wildly corroded can of Spider-Man Pasta from 1995."

Australian Man's Surfboard Lost Forty Years Ago is Now Among Vintage Collection.
Explaining the process of opening the old pasta can, he writes, "I put the can opener to work, unsettled by the rust, but emboldened by the lack of noxious fumes. I turn the knob and wince, unable to rule out the possibility that the contents have mutated into something alive & malevolent." Prior to opening it, he had tweeted a photo of the pasta can saying, "If this gets 1995 retweets, I’ll show you what’s inside." Well, there is definitely a lot more than that.

Finally, Meet the Pasta!
They say tragedy plus time equals comedy, but there's nothing funny about 15 ounces of Spider-Man Pasta reduced to a rotted 3-ounce chunk. Recalling the fate of Jordy Verrill in Creepshow, I'm thankful for my rubber gloves. (3/5) pic.twitter.com/W5WqQ7wEHs

The pasta seems to have caught rust "which looks like a cross between Big Thunder Mountain and one of those Geonosian hives from Attack of the Clones." Then comes the label on the can which resembles an unfortunate design formed on the pasta. Sharing a picture of it, he writes, "I think I notice something, but consult the label on the can to be sure. Indeed, there's poor Spider-Man, trapped in this godforsaken toxic monstrosity. I'm sorry, Peter. With old pasta comes great instability."
