Almost all acids will break down food. This is because many foods are very sensitive to their constantly changing environment.
Acid breaks down the food in the stomach. Pepsin is the enzyme that breaks down the proteins from the food, in the stomach. Highly acidic pH helps to break down the food.

When the hydrochloric acid in the stomach breaks down the food.
Hydrochloric acid breaks down the food into smaller particles :)
The stomach breaks down food with gastric acid, also known as stomach acid. Gastric acid contains hydrochloric acid. In addition, the stomach performs some mechanical breakdown of food.. Food enters the stomach where it is further broken apart and thoroughly mixed with gastric acid, pepsin and other digestive enzymes to break down proteins.
The organ that contains acid and breaks down food is the stomach. It produces gastric acid, primarily hydrochloric acid, which helps digest food by breaking down proteins and killing harmful bacteria. The stomach also churns food to mix it with digestive enzymes, facilitating further digestion before the food moves into the small intestine.
