Don't know about _eating_ clay but with the links it has to flesh (the myth
of man being created from dirt and all) I'd say you could have a ritual
which enables to substitute limbs and organs with counterparts made
of clay. Infused with magic this primal matter would turn into flesh or gain
the ability to mimic it's functions.
