Your stomach is a chemical reactor. When you devour a fast food $0.99 hamburger in about a minute, it acts like an instantaneous input of 350 g of food entering the stomach. In response, the stomach starts producing gastric liquids (acids), which are continuously excreted into the stomach at a rate of 12.0 mL/min as the hamburger is digested.
