Beta Fish: How much food and how often?

Does anyone know, how much you should feed a Beta fish? The people at
Petco say one Beta Bite granule a day. Doesn't seem like enough.

get Hikari Betta Biogold pellets, its more better for them and they like it
better. they get 4 pellets a day. their stomach is as big as one of their
eyeballs so its plenty.

Bettas (2 t's and is pronounced "bet-uh" ), should be fed 2-3 times daily (the
daily amount spilt into 2 or 3 meals).
I feed 2 x's daily. I like the Hikari Betta Bio Gold pellets for one feeding,
and the other is a few Bloodworms (frozen that has been thawed in some tank
water only, I don't use freeze dried at all).
What are you housing your Betta in, and how long have you had him?

I forgot to say that I fast them once weekly (on Saturdays).
