If I'm not mistaken, the translation of one of verbs in the John gospel actually means "munch" more than it means "eat."

"As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me" (John 6:57). The Greek word used for "eats" (trogon) is very blunt and has the sense of "chewing" or "gnawing."
