You could compare a tuple of the info you have provided for each key i.e., the year, month and date with the same subset of available info from today:
>>> import datetime
>>>
>>> def bad_food():
... today = datetime.datetime.now()
... past_due = {
... datetime.datetime(2020, 11, 24): ['chicken', 'soup', 'chips'],
... datetime.datetime(2020, 11, 27): ['lays', 'chilli'],
... }
... for key in past_due:
... if (key.year, key.month, key.day) == (today.year, today.month, today.day):
... print(past_due[key])
...
>>> bad_food()
['lays', 'chilli']
awesome thank you for your help
