The answer would probably be starch since this is the only nutrient that start to be digested in mouth and along the esophagus to the stomach.
More accurate to say 'none', for although saliva does start digestion that is added in the mouth and the oesophagus is simply the conduit from mouth to stomach.

Why only the starchy foods start to be chemically digested?
It's because in the mouth we masticate the food.Mastication increases the surface area of the food which helps to accelerate the breakdown of the carbohydrate molecules.Whereas in other parts of the digestive system where foods are chemically digested mastication does not occur.so foods containing starch start to be chemically digested.
How does esophagus work with other systems?
