I need different foods or products with elements from the periodic table in them. Any will be very helpful. The person who gives me the most will get best answer. Remember these must be common household items!

Sorry, can't think of any others right now. A lot of the elements are either radioactive or toxic, so not all are found in the home.

Just use google and go through the elements.
Hydrogen is in almost all of your food as there are going to be organic chemicals and C-H bonds all over the place
Helium is used in sausages! OMG - I thought you'd never get helium in food!
Lithium is in grains and vegetables
Beryllium is toxic but seems to be in lots of things as a trace element below toxic levels
Boron in fruits and vegetables (esp dates and prunes)
etc
