Owners feed them a couple of times daily. Wild horses forage for the needed grass. The natural instinct of horses is to graze, so they will search out the most nutritious and tasty grasses with their nose, lips, and tongue. Once they have found the grass or forage they want they will snip the grass with their teeth. If the horse is stall kept or fed grain by humans they will use the same method to determine which hay or grain they prefer.
Another Answer:
Horses eat with their mouths. They use their noses to smell and their tongues to taste to get find the best-tasting food they want to eat. They use their lips to grab a mouthful of fodder and their teeth to separate it from the ground or the bale and chew very briefly before swallowing.
Domestic horses have food given to them by their human owners/companions. Many are allowed out to pasture where they can forage for their own meal for the day or time allotted to them to graze.
Wild or feral horses must travel to find food, using the same methods as mentioned in the above paragraph, as well as learned knowledge where to obtain such food in the vast area of their range, because there's a very, very small chance that a human will be there to feed them.
