Factory satellites get most of their raw matterials from asteroids they find
floating around and process for ore. The factories are each the size of a small
planet so they probably have alot of raw matterials for food production lying
around right along with the stem-cells they'd need to grow new clones. And yes,
most of the matterials for food are easy enough to synthesize, simple protiens,
carbohydrates etc, but I would think they probably save time by recycling the
bodies of old, dead soldiers. It also makes sense that Zentradi soldiers might
occasionally stop off on some planet, find some large animal, kill it and eat
it. (Some would probably start up a bond fire and roast it on a... tree.
Others, like Kamjin, would probably prefer to eat it raw ) I keep picturing a
pair of Regults shooting down a giant pterasaur on new eden and roasting it
over a campfire the size of a house.
We also know the Zentradi DO have some kind of booze, something else Kamjin and
Lap'Lamiz frequently enjoy. (Kamjin's drunken antics during Operation Mona
earned him his infamous nickname: Ally Killer)
There's also the remote possibility that mortally wounded Zentradi become food
for their comrades after they expire... a VERY remote possibility.

question. Given teh Zentradi I
would think that the ships only re-stock at the Factory Satelitte. If teh
ship ran ot of food in the field, then the crew would just starve to
death, whats it matter they can always make more right?
A major issue never touched is where the Factories are gettign all
these raw materials from?
