The tinder date who showed up with 3 empty tupperware containers

Met this guy for dinner at a Thai place in Portland last Tuesday. He seemed cool at first but then the food came and he started scooping half his pad thai into those containers right at the table. I asked him about it and he said he was just being "efficient" and pre-portioning leftovers so he didn't overeat. That broke it for me, I couldn't stop staring at those containers the whole meal. Has anyone else had a date do something so weird you just checked out mentally?

Prepping leftovers at the table on a first date?

Would you think less of someone for doing that on purpose? I used to say it was tacky too, until I went out with a guy who ordered way too much and then spent five minutes carefully boxing up his half-eaten pasta. It was so practical and he didn't make a big deal about it, just slid the box into his jacket pocket and we kept talking. Now I figure anyone who's that organized about not wasting food is probably a pretty solid bet.

Yeah @price.tara I once brought a ziploc bag for my own leftovers and the waitress gave me a look like I was smuggling goldfish.
