Firstly, you chew it in your mouth. Then, you swallow by pushing the chewed up food down your throat with your throat. Next, the food you just ate will go down your esophagus into your stomach. It will then get digested by your stomach acids and move on to the intestines. After that, it will keep on moving until it gets out of your body (umm... pooping).
When you eat you relax and enjoy your food. Also when you eat you move your mouth up and down so the food turns into little pieces. When your food turns little you swallow. You swallow by taking all your saliva and pass it down through your throut witch pushes anything in your mouth. YOUR WELCOME :)
