Well, it may look like a hamster is eating food whole, but actually, the have cheek poaches. They can put as much food as they want in there, then chew a swallow a certain amount, depending on how much they want. You can not see the them do this because, it is inside of there mouth. If you ever see there cheeks big, it is because they are storing food!
