I'm pretty sure he doesn't eat the brains. He just looks at them to see how they work.
Maybe he looked at the brain of a zombie, saw how it worked, and now he eats brains.
Who among us can ignore the allure of really funny math puns?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
but only if Peter's brain remained intact. Sylar didnt' get Eden's power because she blew her head off.
I'm not sure Peter would think of that, but my point was more about whether either of them would gain all the powers or just the base power.

This is what I thought. Weren't there jars and jars of brains in his apartment when Matt and Clea Duvall were tracking him?
On edit, or Mohinder. SOMEBODY found Sylar's apartment at some point.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
I remember a detail! An examination of Peter's DNA showed that his genes actually morph. His brain physically changed to give him the powers he absorbs. So a good chance that Sylar could get more than base powers. Since Sylar presumably has similar powers to Peter, only via brain examining, I think the same happens in reverse with Peter. Which means Peter already has super-hearing if only he knew it. Anyway, my speculation until disproven. Definitely not conclusive.
I'm trying to figure out how you take out Sylar. His TK makes him pretty hard to take down, and he seems to keep improving his ability to use his powers. Once you get him, incinerating the body and scattering the ashes seems an obvious move. But even with Molly to locate him, taking him down in the first place is not so easy.

Stop time and decapitate.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
We've already seen it demonstrated that Peter can pick up Sylar's powers (telekinesis). Don't know about the ones he hasn't used in Peter's presence, though.
On how to kill Sylar, time freeze would work, if it was a fast kill (I'm attributing him waking up to the sword touching him). Also, the Haitian would likely prove useful.
And Oh Hells Yes on the burn and spread.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It was the Linderman camp that said that Molly could stop Sylar, right?
Just trying to get it straight in my own mind what the source for that info was.
