Can a Carnivore eat food that is stored on its Fat Tissue card?

The trait text says stored food is neither Plant nor Meat Food, and the designer agreed in direct replies.

Yes. Once food is on the card it counts as fat, neither plant nor meat, so any species with the trait can use it, including a Carnivore or a species that has just evolved into one. The Carnivore restriction applies to taking food, not to moving stored fat onto the board.
