I keep to my three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Meanwhile, I am constantly seeing people munching away on dehydrated fruit bits, protein this or that, fiber supplemented cookies, etc, to the point they overlook proper meals.
Did I miss a memo?
You’re describing people who do sports at work during lunch. Are you sure it’s not restricted to this type of people? I have seen them for a very long time.
Mid morning, mid afternoon… I resembles pica or just boredom eating.
Pica is really something completely different. If they are eating food = not pica (and not even close).
I abused the word there. Pica, in my language, is often used colloquially to address someone that is constantly eating, not out of need but by impulse.
