That it's an intermediate stage in a life cycle is the reason why caterpillars eat a lot of food. The first stage is the egg. The second is the caterpillar. The third stage is the chrysalis. The fourth stage is the butterfly or moth. The caterpillar needs to eat enough food to build the chrysalis and then emerge in a completely different form with completely different responsibilities.

Hello my name is Margaret Beatrice Casabella smith one question about caterpillers do they eat luttuce and tomato and why small amounts of food will they get a sore stomach from to much food?
Every kind of caterpillar has different food requirements. If you have found a caterpillar on a plant in the wild you should feed it the leaves of the plant you found it on. If you did not find it in the wild then please ask the person you got it from what it eats. It is not true that you should only feed a caterpillar small amounts of food. Consider that in the wild a caterpillar lives on a plant many times its size - a huge banquet! However you might not want to pick large amounts of the plant because they will wilt after a short time and then you will need to pick more. For the plant's good you might want to give the caterpillar smaller amounts more frequently so you waste less. But you should give the caterpillar as much as it will eat.
