One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

Maybe a slightly nuanced difference here but I propose the word “consume” refers more to what we feed our brains and “eat” refers to what we feed our bodies.
