They are omnivorous eating carion, mice and anything really. I love the badger and the playful guy (i am guessing his name is Tor) is my favorite variety. I believe you have a meles meles, the european badger, and while the american badger (taxedia taxas) is great this is my fave by far, (honey badgers are cool too) man I think its so cool you have one.
