Delete old MQTT entity, no device, not MQTT discovery, not in YAML, just stuck

I was cleaning up MQTT names after the new changes, and ran across some entities that are now showing disabled. I do not recall if I disabled them or it did. They are from old, abandoned work.

Here is one example. This was once from an esphome sensor device that via MQTT discovery and created this entity. The device no longer shows up at all (correct), only the entity is still there. Two actually from that device.

I have already, long ago, deleted the MQTT discovery topic, in fact the word “fridge” does not appear anywhere in the MQTT database that I can find. I do not believe this was ever created in YAML (I generally do not do that), but have confirmed it is not in YAML now (grep’d the whole config folder tree).

Any ideas?

Again – not in MQTT discovery topics, not in MQTT anywhere, not in any config file, HA restarted many, many times. Currently running 2023.08.1 os 10.4 frontend 20230802.0.

Thanks in advance,

Linwood
