- First as food enters your mouth, physical breakdown happens. Your teeth increase the surface area of your food. Then food goes down the esophagus with the involuntary force of peristalsis. Then comes the Big 4! The stomach stores, mixes, digests, and controls the passage of food. After the Big 4 comes the (not really) small intestine!! The small intestine is the major site of digestion and absorption of food.
