Feels like I have too much food... One guy well said on another forum: "The size of a hiker's backpack is an indicator of the size of their fear". I guess I fear too much that have problems with the storage
Anyway, I once asked AI what will be a reasonable storage in case of a nuclear war hitting the UK and the AI said 3 months is a good option though 2 months is good start. Storing 2-3 months worth of food requires quite a bit of storage, including water

Those hikers resupply in town every 3 days or so.....

Backpackers are obsessed with weight. They carry the bare minimum. I think for a bugout bag you probably want more survival gear, depending on the situation. Backpackers might have to carry 3 days' food, and they need to be eating plenty. For short evacuation, you can eat less.

Find I kind of contradict myself - I feel safe travelling with very few things and used to spend most of the week not at home
