Did the terminator need baby food like Robocop?
How else could his skin recover from all those built holes? He wasn’t Liquid Metal.
shareThey never show it eating but there is an unused or maybe unfilmed scene from the first where the terminator eats a candy bar wrapper and all. It was considered too silly for the tone of the film.

Interesting.
Recall in the first one, that with enough damage that the skin cover did die, and started to stink.
"YOU GOT A DEAD CAT IN THERE?"
it makes sense that if it had any repair or long duration that the organic cover had to have some... digestive system so that it could get the materials and nutrients needed to heal or "live".
