by swallowing
Swallowing has nothing to do with gravity, you tongue literally pushes food into your throat when you swallow. Swallowing is the utilization of a muscle.
Food normally goes in your throat when you swallow. A coordinated swallow reflex, controlled partially by the tongue, helps you control the timing of swallowing.
When properly chewed, food should not hurt when swallowed. It is possible that it became lodged on the epiglottis, or hit an irritated part of the throat. You should have your doctor check for acid reflux or other problems if you have pain when swallowing.
