Food weights defaulting to sixteen decimal places?

When I input a weight with a decimal point (ie 1.6 of 100g) it shows something like this 1.5990000007645320?

The same thing is happening to me. At first, I corrected it each time, but it became a bother. So instead I am simply replacing the first and/or second number right of the decimal so that when rounded off it reflects my portion size. Ex: 1.5990000007645320 would round to 1.6. If I wanted 1.5 I would simply replace the 5 with a 4 so it rounded up.

Being an accounting person, it used to bother me but after doing this for a while I've just come to accept it. It may be self-adjusting the quantity to make the calorie count a whole number?? Who knows… :)
