Bag size varies a lot so an absolute number doesn't really help much. 4/5 bags sounds like an insane amount of food for 1 person, so I suspect the bags we get are bigger.
My regular bike has 70L of storage in pannier bags. Cargo bikes will be holding hundreds.
How many times do you go get groceries each week though?
Once. Hence my thinking they must be small
