On a side note, I could've sworn I had clicked Feedback/Requests. I was very confused when I saw this thread, and then saw the note that OP is drinking "adult beverages" and it all became clear. Then the fact that no one told him he was in the wrong place confused me. I just found out when I clicked "reply" and saw the big General Discussions label at the top of the page.
On-Topic - I'm not actually sure. It's a weird thought, isn't it? I'd imagine that either the clone is changed to remove any need to eat or drink, or there are in-suit supplements. It's likely there's some kind of feeder system in the backpack, although we already know that's where the power supply is. Maybe it holds multiple utilities? *shrug*
As for what Judge said, it didn't really answer your question, it more just told you that you aren't immortal, although I'm FAIRLY certain that clones don't age. :/
Also, you aren't built up of atoms from the last clone. You're built up of ANYTHING that can be biomassed. A dead animal, for example. Doesn't even need to be human, it just needs to have lived at some point and then died. If anything, we're not immortals, we're zombies.

Well. I'd like to point out. And please forgive me, because i read this on the internet, and we all know what we DON'T always believe... But I read an article on a scientist that basically said, there is no reason that you have a personality. There's a part where your brain stores memories, and a part where it tells you all of your basic motor functions, and all that stuff, but there's no part of the brain where the brain says "Ok, you're a smart*ass". The memories you have may influence your behavior, but it's entirely possible and likely that your personality is in a different part of the body all together, or an entirely new part that is unseen by the naked human eye.
But again, articles on the internet written by scientists are almost always iffy. I don't have a link or a source, so I couldn't get you guys to tell me if it's legit or not.
