What you should do, is just be paitent and wait. eventualy, the thing your feeding your snapper will die,(if not already dead), or the snapper will eat it. while i writing this, I'm looking ant my snapper and a tadpole i just cought for him , and i am dying to see how he'll eat it or how he'll kill it. All he's doing is sitting on top of it. BORING!!!!!

I found a baby snapping turtle and she would't eat the bologna we gave so we waved chicken in her face and sprinkled tiny shrimps and she ate all of those.

If your turtle is not eating it might be best to take him/her to the vet, if your turtle is in a new tank, then that is normal, they have to get used to the new area. Another reason is the turtle might be trying to go into hibernation, if it is dall then , maybe.
