Best Answer

=== === Yes you do need your stomach, because you need your stomach for breaking down food by an enzyme called pesin. And also there is also a very strong acid in your stomach called "Hydrocloric Acid" which destroys nearly all germs/bacteria in your food.The stomach has a tough enough lining to hold up in this highly acidic environment.

"Why do you need a stomach?" You need a stomach because it digests your food and breaks it down.
