Molars are large and flat teeth, rather than your canines and incisors. They are either sharp or thin. Like flour is grinded by moving stones in some cases, food can easily be chewed and/or broken down into a slop or powder. Mostly you will realise that your food (after biting it into smaller chunks with your front teeth) will usually end up being chewed at the back of your mouth.
