"Grasshoppers eat grasses and other plants. They have strong jaws that are great for chomping. And hoppers eat a lot too. Sometimes they become a problem to farmers by eating their crops." http://www.sparta.k12.il.us/SID/Bugs/hoorayforhoppers.htm
"Some types of grasshoppers will only eat certain types of plants. Others will eat any type of plant they can find. Grasshoppers can destroy entire crops of alfalfa, clover, cotton, corn and other grains, causing millions of dollars in crop damages every year." http://www.thaibugs.com/Articles/grasshoppers.htm

When they swarm, anything. Swarms in Africa have been known to eat 20,000 tons of grain in a 24 hour period. They leave virtually nothing alive in their wake.
