Yes, John Glenn was not the first person to eat in space. The first person to eat in space was Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin during his orbit of the Earth in 1961.
He ate applesauce out of a toothpaste like tube.
In 1962 John Glenn ate applesauce packed in a tube, and sugar tablets in water to demonstrate that people could eat, swallow, and digest food in a weightless environment.
The first food consumed in space was applesauce, eaten by astronaut John Glenn during the Mercury-Atlas 6 mission in 1962. The applesauce was packed in a toothpaste-like tube for easy consumption in microgravity.

John Glenn (born 1930) was the first US astronaut to orbit the Earth, making three orbits in a 5-hour spaceflight on February 20, 1962. To see if man could eat in space, he chewed on malt tablets and ate applesauce from a sealed tube. He reported that swallowing food in space was no different than on Earth. (Three years later, during food tests on the two-man Gemini 3, pilot John Young sneaked a corned beef sandwich aboard the spacecraft. But when Gus Grissom tried to eat it, it fell apart.)

Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was the first person to eat food in space during his historic Vostok 1 flight in April 1961. He consumed a tube of chocolate sauce, proving that eating in microgravity was possible.
Yuri Gagarin was the first person to eat in space. He carried food for the first time in space.
