I like the current food requirement for long rests.

I just had a thought that it would be cool to actually scale the amount of food required for a long rest based on the characters in camp. This could just account for the playable characters, but I also would like non playable characters like Scratch and Volo also requiring food.

Since the current baseline is 40 food items for a party, the requirement could be changed to 4-5 food items per person (and perhaps 2 food items for pets).
