The answer to your question would be that the verbal in the sentence is to eat and it is an infinitive.

Explanation:

A verbal is a word derived from a verb that functions in a sentence as a noun or modifier rather than as a verb. Verbals include infinitives, gerunds, and participles. The difference between a verb and a verbal is that the latter is not inflected for person and tense. In this case, the verbal in question is an infinitve: To eat. Infinitives are verbals that can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs. To eat functions as an adverb.

The verbal in this sentence is to eat, and it is an infinitive verbal.
