Chewing the food is not really a chemical reaction. However, your saliva does partially break down the food in your mouth, which would be a chemical reaction in a way. The main part of the chemical reaction happens when the food goes into your stomach to be digested. There, it is broken down almost completely by the acids. Then, as the food moves through your intestines, and other organs, the food gets completely broken down until it comes out the other end.
