Reply to comment by phryan in ELI5: How does your stomach "know" when to pass food on if more food keeps entering during initial digestion? by Water-Cookies
That makes sense, I just don't understand how the stomach knows when it's acceptable to pass food on, and how, if other food enters at the same time.

I am not sure if this is the cause of the misconception but the stomach is not a giant empty bowl where everything enters, is mixed, and sometimes it opens and let everything flow somewhere else. Food moves through it
