I asked a passenger multiple times to make sure his mask was covering his nose and mouth not just his chin. I made all the required announcements; so I believe 4 PAs were made referring to masks. The pilots also made an additional mask announcement. Once we got in the air the passenger took his mask off completely. We serve so much food on a two hour flight that he constantly had food in front of him. Every time I asked him to put his mask on he would take a bite of food. Every time I looked at him; he would take a bite. I could not really give him a warning because every time I looked at him; he would take a bite of something. But he did not wear his mask the entire flight until we were cleaning up at 10;000 feet. Do we really need to serve so much food. On a two-hour flight we provide several food services. Tough to enforce the mask policy when people are constantly eating. This passenger knew better; but just refused to wear his mask. Reevaluate the amount of food served on a two hour flight.
Flight Attendant reported that by providing passengers several food services allowed passengers to eat constantly and not have to comply with the face mask policy.
