How does the angel of the Lord treat the meal?

Judges 6:21 (ESV)

21 Then the angel of the LORD reached out the tip of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened cakes. And fire sprang up from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened cakes. And the angel of the LORD vanished from his sight.

He treats it like an offering instead of a meal. He uses a rock as an altar, touches with his staff the meat and the unleavened cakes, and lights it up in fire.
