The eat() method is a function that allows an object to consume food or perform actions related to consuming food.
Think of the eat() method as a person sitting down at a table and enjoying a meal. Just like how we use our mouths to eat, the eat() method is used by objects in programming to "consume" or process data.
chew(): This term refers to another method that can be used in conjunction with the eat() method. It represents the action of breaking down food into smaller pieces.
digest(): Another related term, digest(), represents the process of converting consumed food into energy or usable forms.
fullnessLevel: This variable keeps track of how much food has been eaten and helps determine when an object is satiated.
