The stomach breaks down food mechanically and also produces chemicals for digestion. Most of the nutrients broken down in digestion are absorbed by the small intestine In the large intestine, water and minerals are absorbed and waste material is stored. Solid waste is eliminated through the rectum.
The food then reaches the stomach via the esophagus where it undergoes churning; here various digestive juices secreted by the stomach lining mix with the food rendering it to a semi solid mass of soup like consistency known as 'chyme'. The stomach digestsnutrients like salt and sugar while other complex food products are digested in the small intestine where the food passes from the stomach.
In the small intestine the food mixes with vital enzymes secreted by the liver and the pancreas; fats and proteins are mainly digested in the small intestine. The inner lining of the small intestine is covered by projections called as villi that absorb the digested nutrients from the food and convey it to the blood stream.
The large intestine receives the end products of the digestion process where water and other nutrients are absorbed along with bacterial action inducing necessary fermentation; waste products to be excreted are stored in the end segment known as rectum. In all the whole process may take anywhere from 10 to 20 hours depending on the nature of food, one's level of activity as well as one's mood in general.

The stomach produces acid which along with churning helps break down the food. It systematically passes it into the intestine switching the pH from an acid to an alkaline where the food is broken down and the nutrients are absorbed.
Then down the road you end up with poo! LOL
