Commentary for Ketubot 166:13

וליטעמיך הא דתנן רבי יהודה אומר לעולם הוא אוכל פירי פירות כו' כיון דאכלינהו לפירי פירי פירות מהיכא אלא בדשיירא הכא נמי בדשייר:

But even according to your reasoning, that which we taught in the Mishnah, R. Judah says: he may in all cases enjoy the usufruct of the usufruct etc., since he ate the usufruct, how could there be usufruct of usufruct. Rather it must be where there was some left over, so too here there was some left over.
