Pacmans do often get foreign matter into their mouths when they lunge at food. They usually get a bite out of whatever is around the prey as well as the prey itself. Or sometimes they miss and just get dirt. They will try to wipe at the food while ingesting it, but most of whatever goes into their mouth gets swallowed. This is the reason that feeding on moss is so dangerous. They don't intentionally eat dirt or leaves or moss; it is more of a side effect of the way they hunt. Also, I'm fairly sure that Pacmans cannot spit or do any action like that. When they have something in their mouths that they don't like, they will open their mouths and wipe to see if it will fall out. But the majority of the time, whatever goes in the mouth is going to get swallowed.
