Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.
So that way the food taken in (and stored in the food vacuoles) can be moved to the lysosomes for digestion.

Digestion in amoeba is intracellular taking place within the cell. The food taken in remains in a food vacuole or gastric vacuole formed by the cell membrane and small part of the cytoplasm. The vacuoles are transported deeper into the cells by cytoplasmic movements. Here they fuse with lysosomes that contain enzymes. Two enzymes amylase and proteinase have been reported. Thus, amoeba can digest sugars, cellulose and proteins. Fats, however, remain undigested. The contents of the vacuole become lighter and the outline of the vacuole becomes indefinite indicating that the digestion is complete.
When the ends of two pseudopods fuse, they form a food vacuole. Food is broken down inside the food vacuole in the cytoplasm.
They engulf food particle by phagocytosis. The food vacuoles fuse with lysosomes, and the enzymes digest the food. Undigested material is later remove by exocytosis. ------------------------------------- They have structures called vacuoles in their cytoplasm. These are like movable stomachs made of cell wall material.. The food is enclosed, enzymes are secreted within the vacuole. Nutrients are absorbed through the walls. Then the vacuole moves to the surface of the cell and the unusable contents are discarded.

Digestive (hydrolytic) enzymes are stored in lysosomes, which will fuse with a food vacuole.

"Amoebas lack an organ-based digestive system, instead they engulf their food via phagocytosis to create a food vacuole within the cell Digestive enzymes are typically produced in the lysosomes which fuse with the food vacuole to create an endosome. Here the food is digested and the wastes are escreted via exocytosis." -direct quote from my Biology lab book (Miami University BMZ115 lab manuel)
