Despite being robotic constructs, Transformers seem to have certain substances that are analogous to '''food'''.  


How the Transformers eat the food is up to debate, because [[Optimus Prime (G1)|some]] [[Wheeljack (G1)|of]] [[Shockwave (G1)|them]] don't have [[Mouthplate|mouths]].

==Desserts==
:Lead sulfide, also known as galena, occurs naturally on planet [[Earth]]. It is an important ore of lead, and forms dull, grayish, cubical crystals of varying size. It is also a natural semiconductor, and as such was vital in the early days of radio, when a single galena crystal was used as a 'detector' for radio waves.
*[[Chocolate covered oil drum]]s
:Lead sulfide crystals are also a Cybertronian food product, and are apparently delicious when combined with savory mercury sauce and flavorful iron filings as garnish for a tasty robot. They are, of course, poisonous and quite inedible for [[Human|humans]].  The crystals found on [[Femax]] emit a greenish glow in the visible spectrum; this may indicate that they are formed from an unknown radioactive lead isotope.

Despite being robotic constructs, Transformers seem to have certain substances that are analogous to food.
