How does walking on a XC D3 team work?

My daughter’s work out area had food available - protein bars, bananas, juice, water. Sometimes the coaches had other food (bagels, sandwiches, pizza) for meetings. They had plenty of food, but the cafeteria was centrally located so they could go in and get food all the time. Those living in the dorms had unlimited swipes, and other had plenty.

Her boyfriend, on the men’s team, did complain when they traveled that they didn’t get to order whatever they wanted. D’s coach gave each player a budget (like $15 for dinner) but the boys ate ‘family style’ at places like Olive Garden with big bowls of salad and pasta.
