Damn you, frugality! *shakes fist at food*

I think one of my biggest problems with food is that I'm too frugal.
Like tonight, I had initially served myself some cheese, deli meats, pate, crackers and wine up for a late-night snack (I had an almost 800 cal exercise deficit today so I earned it), and noticed I had about 2 servings of pate left.
Knowing I was the only one in the house likely to eat it, I went ahead and finished it off because I didn't want it to go bad (I had bought it Christmas eve for celebration).
Damn you frugality!
Anyone else have a problem with rationalizing throwing (good) food out vs. eating it because you don't want to "waste your money" on it?
