Um, no, they don't eat their owners, they are quite harmless. They prefer rotting fruit. In the wild they eat small amounts of nectar, sap, and rotting fruit. I feed mine really ripe banana, mango, and whatever old fruit I may have. As adults they do not eat a lot, they do most of their eating as larvae. I just found one today here in Costa Rica, they make fun pets.
