I read an article in newspaper yesterday about the single life arising nowadays. The author is a single guy, who has a problem being alone because in their male dominated society, there is a tendency to look down on a man who does his own shopping such as men are not supposed to go to the market to buy vegetables, chicken, fish or even know the price a kilo of onions.
He also facing a problem when he go to supermarket to get food products. Most of the products are all in family size, so he end up his shopping with buy fresh milk and fruit juice. After a few days, he forget about his milk and juice. When he open refrigerator, the milk has fermented and get stinks. So he think, if these products were packaged for singles there would be no wastage.
It's remind me to one of story that I seem in tv, about the father and his son buy a watermelon at the market. The price is same either small size or big size. Then the father choose the medium size. His son asked him why he didn't choose the bigger one. He said, "If we pick the big size, we can't finish it and wastage. Don't be greedy."
