Just pitching in to say that cooking for yourself can be a problem when you can only either buy certain ingredients either at twice the amount you can consume/store in a reasonable period of time, or at twice the price for a more sanely sized package. I ended up giving up on certain meals because I feel awful throwing away food (read: money I can't really afford to waste)

That reminds me, for the person who had half an onion left and didn't know what to do with it, the answer is potato salad! :v: Seriously, always have a bunch of potatoes, they last a long loving time, are a nice supplement to just about anything, taste OK even when cold, and it's hard to imagine a situation where something potato-based ends up being thrown away.

My biggest issues are things like dairy products, since they spoil really fast, but most of them except stuff like sour cream have ridiculous prices for packages small enough for me to consume before they spoil.
