kevin1986 answered Monday August 2 2004, 11:53 pm: I can't believe I'm about to give a SERIOUS answer to this question. The fact is that when you eat corn,it's so small that even if you chew most of it,there's still some that you obviously didn't chew. Since it's small,we don't really notice the difference. So when you crap,the parts you didn't chow come on out of your bowels. If we could swallow beef whole,the beef would come out whole too. [ kevin1986's advice column | Ask kevin1986 A Question ]
