If you are looking for a pure element which is also a typical food in your refrigerator, you won't find many.
If you are a fan of Japanese cuisine, you might have a piece of sushi decorated with silver foil or gold foil.
If you have an old mercury thermometer hanging from the shelf, you have mercury. (I haven't seen one of these since I left home 25 years ago.)
(Silver, gold and mercury are all elements.)

Additional:
Purdue_chemist01 has a point. But the oxygen and nitrogen in our atmosphere are diatomic (O2, N2) so I'm not sure if they count as a pure elements. But there are trace gases in our air which are monatomic (like argon (1%)).
