Saul was without sight for three days after he beheld the Lord in a vision (see Acts 9). During this time he did not eat or drink. After Ananias came and restored his sight to him, Saul "received meat" and was strengthened.
Maybe the mention of people eating after such spiritual experiences is just to remind us that we need to look after the physical needs as well as the spiritual. We cannot always be feeding one and starving the other. We have to balance them both.

I hope this wasn't some sort of message to me about my dietary habits today with church and all.... it was a crazy day....
No, silly, it's because a lot of people tend to worry that I don't eat enough.
:o)
Indeed.
Eat vegetables. Eat fruits. Eat grains. Eat some meats.
And you take care of the other food groups nicely already.
