So many foods are not packaged in appropriate amounts for single people. Besides fresh produce, I often end up with unfinished containers of things like hummus or spaghetti sauce.
I've taken to buying frozen berries - they come in resealable pouches so I can pour out the amount I want to thaw and eat, then put the rest back in the freezer. Not the same as eating truly fresh fruit, but not bad.
