Yeah, the whole what do they eat thing is interesting to think about. However, I'm pretty sure the Grey's don't eat in the sense we do. Let's
break it down. First of all, aliens have mastered genetic engineering. We are already starting to figure out what genes do and trying to control the
bad ones and maximize the good ones. They would have no doubt found ways to make themselves really smart (big heads), really strong (although not
necessarily big bodies) and really efficient at using water/food, so chances are they need very little of it. However, they may not eat at all. They
could have found a way to produce what they need within their own body, or inserted some tiny device that enables them to make what they need. They
could even feed off energy all around us in space or absorb energy through alternate means (i.e. not your mouth). This is even more plausible
considering the Grey's have no sex organs. Makes sense, they would not NEED all the extra equipment. They probably make babies outside of their
body because it is less taxing on them and safer, more efficient so they ditched the hardware. Same thing for the eating. They don't have teeth,
sex organs or rectums, so I'm guessing they ditched that to. It's like building a perfect machine. No extraneous parts. Less to go wrong and
carry around. They don't want to eat us, because we wouldn't be healthy (you think aliens eat McDonald's!). Get a clue.
