Hi,
well it is hard to tell what it might exactly mean without the context but I would translate it as:
" Wem auch immer ich Nahrung gebe" you could also say " wen auch immer ich fuetter", but that would be more like slang or spoken german.

Hope it helps

I would like to see the context this sentence is to be incorporated in.
Is it supposed to mean whomever I feed?
Whichever one I feed?
Alle(s) dass ich Verfüttert?
Cheers

True: We need to have the context.

Anyway I would say in German: "Wen auch immer ich ernähre".
(Definitely not: "Alle(s) dass ich Verfüttert?" -> This is no good German)

Whatever

if their were something good and something bad fighting inside me and someone asked me which one wins and i told them which ever one i feed. thats the context i would be using it in. thanks everyone

In this context maybe "Whichever one I nurture"
"was auch immer, (das) ich ernähre"

In this context probably: 'dasjenige, (das) ich naehre'

- Welcher Seite ich gerade nachgebe.

Your sentence in english is too "english" for a direct translation, you have to rethink the whole thing in German. You can't "feed" metaphorically in German without a specific context that allows to make the metaphore clear. The most natural way to me to say it in German is nachgeben (to give in).
