They forage for plants high up in the mountains where they live.

They also dig into the earth to get tender shoots of bamboo, and eat fruits. There are differences in diet for the different subspecies.

An adult male will eat up to 40 pounds (18 kilograms) of food each day.WHOA that is a lot of food

Gorillas are herbivore meaning it eats plants and other green leafy material. In the jungles they get their nutrition from fruits and other greenery. Often in the Congo the silver-backs will indulge on marijuana plants causing them to become very boisterous when dealing with food most of the time shoving aside the woman and child ape to get themselves another banana. Well, they live in the jungle full of various trees, plants, etc. that they'll sit by or if it's a tree pull down and munch. Gorillas don't have any trouble because they are not carnivores they are herbivores.

Gorillas usually do not travel far to search for food. However, when they do travel miles in search of food, they do so to find a special food that has ripened in an area away from their usual home.

When I (a human being) want to find food, I know exactly where my local supermarket is, and how to get there. When a gorilla wants to find food, he or she does not know where the food is, he or she just has to look for it. If he or she is lucky, food will turn up quickly, but sometimes it takes more time and more travel. It's a random process.
