Vomit

Vomiting is the body's natural way of emitting things in the digestive system.

Vomit is usually made up of partly digested food particles and digestive juices, and exits the body through the mouth.

They can, actually. The act of regurgitation is very, very similar to vomiting, except that it is a much less forceful, somewhat more "passive" process where food from the foregut is brought up--albeit gently--into the mouth to be chewed as cud. Vomiting is much more forceful, and usually an ominous sign in cattle signifying acute gastric distention issues, however it is rare to see a bovine vomit--same with horses.

Why does a small amount of beer make you vomit?

Maybe because your body doesn't like beer, so it rejects it.

It's possible you have a fructose intolerance. Most beers are brewed with corn, which is high in fructose.

It could be celiac disease. Which means you'll also feel the same way after eating bread.

It might be that the beer taps at the establishment you're buying from are not cleaned properly and therefore are teeming with bacteria. Some people are more sensitive to bacteria than others.

You don't *need* to drink beer. it is not essential to life nor any bodily functions. It is something you can live without.

See a doctor if you are concerned.

How do you clean vomit off of a leather sofa?

I found a solution that cleaned 2 year old vomit from my leather couch, from a similar situation of a child being sick.

Buy foaming Saddle Soap from an equestrian store. This will clean the leather down to the source of the smell (in my case I had tried several remedies including Nature's Miracle, Febreeze, and other items to clean/mask the smell).

The Saddle Soap brand I used was Fiebings. Then I put A LOT of fresh unused baking soda on the leather and rubbed it in (don't use the stuff that has been sitting in your refrigerator). Vacuum up the excess. This will kill the smell about 50% and open any barrier that keeps the leather from getting wet.

After the leather dries for a day or two, make a water and baking soda "batter" and rub it on the leather. The solution will soak in, so you'll see the leather darken from being wet. Let this dry a bit and just use a vacuum brush to remove the dried baking soda.

After rubbing off any excess baking soda, let the leather dry, then treat the leather with appropriate leather conditioner for your couch. I used Lexol Conditioning Wipes which I also found at the equestrian store. I can't believe I finally have a couch that I don't have to hide or wrap in blankets.

This has changed the color a little of the leather, but I think it is better than having a couch that reeks or having to resort to buying a new one.
