I'm not 100% sure what you need, but assuming you need what I think you need .. :) .., replacing your loop with this works:

foreach my $row (@AoA) {
  my @foo = map { split /\n/ } @$row;

  for( my $i = 0; $i < $#foo; $i += $width ) {
    push @new_rows, [ @foo[ $i .. -1 + $i + $width ] ];
  }
}

This outputs:

$VAR1 = [
          [
            'single',
            'cell',
            'values'
          ],
          [
            'are',
            'really',
            'easy'
          ],
          [
            'but',
            'multiline',
            'stilton'
          ],
          [
            'these',
            'cells',
            'is'
          ],
          [
            'aren\'t',
            'suck',
            'great'
          ],
          [
            'back',
            'to',
            'life'
          ],
          [
            'back',
            'to',
            'reality'
          ],
          [
            'with',
            'more',
            'cells'
          ]

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
