Two or three distinct meals plus random snacking. Always breakfast and dinner and nearly always lunch. I eat all day though.

Call me a traditionalist, but I believe in 3 meals a day.  It's more than the process of taking in calories.  Food is not just fuel for your meat machine.

Three meals a day is a cultural artifact. There is nothing special about three meals a day, although it is worshiped by many westerners.

Uh huh.  You keep saying that.

But there is something very special about three meals a day.

On workdays, breakfast is a couple cups of black coffee and a muffin or sweetroll. Something I can eat in the car.
Lunch could be a sandwich, but usually just something I grabbed from the pantry. Cheese, crackers, some cookies, maybe a granola bar. A boiled egg, perhaps.
Dinner is the big meal.

Really, my usual diet generally meets the wimpy modern requirements for fasting. The first two meals hardly add up to a full real meal! 

Days off are another story. I may have two breakfasts, go grab whatever fast-food I've been craving, and a full dinner!

True.  Mostly fruit snacks.

I'm not quite sure.  Apparently it's enough to keep me alive though.  I feel fit as a whistle too.
