Lobsters can perform some food processing with their claws and mouth parts, including the mandibles and maxillae, but much of the fine food processing happens in a chamber in the stomach called the gastric mill. The gastric mill has three teeth, which are not bony but chitinous, which chew food that makes its way down the lobster's gastrointestinal tract.
