Wow... I have done 10 days on a single small canister. I guess I was only cooking breakfast, coffee, and dinner, and that's with a jetboil.

Like Jordan said though... there are a lot of factors. If you don't have water and are melting snow, all bets are off - that's the only time I've run out of fuel (and the worst time to run out of fuel).
