I never thought of them eating....if they can go without sleep and wives surely they can go without food

They've always seemed to me to be entirely sustained by their Vow. No sleep, no food, no drink.

I agree, CovenantJr. I can only remember them using food or drink medicinally, not as sustenance.

two unalterable symbols of the world;
permanence at rest, and permanence in motion;
participants in the Power that remains.

I understood it as they didn't eat, sleep or drink.
