    In case you didn't see the answer, the Rafflesia is a plant, and like do most plants, they do not really 'eat'. Most plants make their food by photosynthesis, but the rafflesia is a 'parasitic' plant, meaning that it absorbs what it needs (for food) from other living thing, here, it is another plant in which in grows root like structures to take up the necessary nutrients.

    Does this answer your question? :)
