Hello, I am a hamburger. My friends call me H.B. I have been through a scorching hot grill, smashed between bread and drowned in sauce. Now I'm in a box waiting for my fate. Wait, hold on the box is being opened, I see the light. Oh no, no, no, someone is about to eat me.
I think I am in the mouth. It's dark and moist in here. I am being broken down by teeth into smaller pieces. The salvia in ere is helping the mouth break me down as well. I am all wet and slimy, but at least I am in somewhat of a whole piece. This person has finally stopped chewing and has swallowed me. I am in a muscular tube, almost like a slide. Wahoo. Yayyyy. Wahoo. Okay I'm over this. I've been sliding down for what feels like forever into the unknown.
Bloop, finally I've made it somewhere. This is probably the stomach. It's still very dark and gross. I'm being digested even further now, as if this nightmare couldn't get any worse. Acids are breaking away at my fat, Noooo I love my fat and I'm turning all slimy. I look so gross and different. When will this be over?
After a couple other steps my journey is coming to an end. I'm in the large intestine smashed together with other waste to form feces. Now I'm finally being contracted out of the anal opening from the digestive tract. Finally I see the light and my process in the body is over.
