OK, so my learned husband and I are having a debate, and we need an answer.

It is usually said that a thru hiker needs 2 pounds of food per day to meet caloric needs.  I've always assumed that applied to typical dried hiker food.  My husband thinks it means regular food.  Or is it a combo of the two?
