How many times do you eat on a backpacking trip?

[Shawn]

For a whole day from waking up and hiking all day to before you go to sleep at your campsite, how many times do you eat?

What is the size proportion each time?

Should we be eating more when backpacking versus how we eat when we're not hiking?

Yes we should eat more backpacking? Yes, though I don't. I generally still eat three meals and just a little snacking.

I usually eat breakfast, snacks, and dinner and that's it.

I probably eat less than I should.
