Because they don't have teeth to crush food, they swallow the food whole then let the digestive juices break it down. Starfish don't exactly swallow either. They extrude their stomachs out over their prey. This works well if you feed on clams - you put your stomach inside the clam's shell; little chance of getting a clam out of its shell. This method of feeding suffers a good deal of leakage (as you can well imagine) so the starfish is required to produce lots of digestive juices to make up for the losses.
