Looks like it is not completely a lie that lions eat grass. Past theories have it that lions sometimes take a break from eating meat and eat grass or other leaves. Usually, it is said that if the lion is suffering from digestive distress, it may resort to eating grass for a change. Although many times they just spit it out.
