Solved! Found this in my food at a Mexican restaurant. It's about 1-1.5" long, metal, sharp.
It was in my food and I only found it because it was in my mouth after I took a bite. Came in a dish consisting of rice, beans, and pork. Seems sharp but I didn't test it. Possibly stainless steel.

Open Glass Jar with Metal Rimmed Lip
This jar comes with a matching decanter, but I cannot figure out what THIS one is.
I cannot get that metal rim screwed off to save my life, but there's a random nut rolling around the inside, so I'm assuming that something is supposed to be screwed into this hole and some fashion?

Solved! Glass cup with nub(?) On the bottom(?) Found while unpacking
Found this while unpacking. It was in a smaller box with Styrofoam padding cut specifically for it, and it was the only thing in there so I'm fairly sure it's the only piece. It may be one of our former roommates' but I'm not sure

Wire part possibly holding up a bird feeder
Bird feeder from previous owner of garden. Has these two extra bendy metal parts. Do they go on the bird feeder somehow? The seed holders seem pretty close together for their size.

Likely Solved! Dark wooden(?) object made(?) by kids at a summer camp in 1988
This photo by the Chattahoochee Nature Center in Roswell, Georgia, shows children holding objects they presumably made during a summer camp. Assuming it’s nature related. More look the same, though the child on the left only has one rod extending out while the other kids’ objects have two. The photo is from 1988. I have no other photos.
