The verb you are probably thinking of is “edo” which can have a present infinitive “esse” as well as the more regular looking “edere”.
The difference between the “esse” of this verb and the one from “sum” is that the initial e is a long vowel.
There is also a compound verb “comedo”, which has present infinitive “comesse” or “comedere” & also means “to eat”.

The Latin word you are looking for is “essum”.
For example the sentence ” I wish to eat.” translates into Latin as “Volo essum.”
Volo = I wish
essum = to eat
