What does ''食べろっていう'' mean

Question

ちょっとこれ１本でどうやって食べろっていうのよイヤがらせ？

I was watching Gabriel Dropout, Episode 2, and then I came across with that sentence, but I don't get the logic behind it.

Why is taberu even in imperative form? What does verb in imperative form + っていう mean?

For more context, this is their conversation:

Vignette:ガヴ割り箸取ってくれない？
Vignette:ありがと
Gabriel:ほれ
Satania: ちょっとこれ１本でどうやって食べろっていうのよ
Satania: イヤがらせ？

「ちょっとこれ１本でどうやって食べろっていうのよ」 :Why do you say "eat" to me by just one of this chopstick? (How can I eat it?)

It is used as an antonym.

Omitted「」on 食べろ may be making you confused.
