It never states what they ate, but it says that there was no death before that point, hence no carnivores. It was designed to be a perfect world, much like what Christians believe that life will be like after death. In the Pseudopigraphal texts of Eden, for example, it further explains that man had no need to eat prior to that point, never experienced hunger, and it had to be explained to them what those sensations even meant after being expelled. It additionally explains that man was more of a spiritual being back then, perhaps not even in the physical flesh that we now exist in, but more of a being of light. It goes into further detail to state that man did not even have the ability at first to process food, and that had to be changed after the fall. Before the fall, man was a more powerful being then the angles, and the angels stood in fear of man, yet after the fall the roles reversed. Man was able to see and interact with the angels, and speak directly with God in the language of God. All of that was either immediately lost after being expelled from the Garden, or was lost slowly over time.
BTW, I would not scoff too much at some of the pseudopigraphal texts, as many were once accepted works of the Jews, taught in synagogue. Many Duticonanical, Pseudopigraphal, and Apocryphal texts, though they do not hold the same authority as scripture, are still considered valuable to read. Often they are stories which show the Jewish teachings on certain aspects of the Torah in additional detail.
