Could you maybe start out with a lower amount of the new food in his dish or offer it as a treat? Once he's used to it or sees it as an awesome treat food he may take to it! You can store the bag in the freezer in the meantime.

If you don't want unwanted food to go to waste after its been opened you could try giving it to the spca or another local rescue. They're usually happy to have it. That's what I've done with every one of my rescues if they came with stuff I didn't want or couldn't use. Like one of my hamsters who was being fed rat food.
