Buddhist monks typically eat twice a day, often during the morning and early afternoon. In many monastic traditions, they follow the practice of not eating after noon until the next morning. This schedule aligns with their commitment to mindfulness and simplicity in their daily routines. However, practices can vary based on the specific tradition and region.
