THE DEATH OF A PIECE OF BACON

Why me? He had 3 strips of bacon and an egg, yet he chose me. What will happen? I suspect I will die, so this is my will. I will also tell you what happens. 1

First, he began to digest me by biting me in half with his incisors. Then, while being chemically digested by his saliva and amylase enzymes, I continued to be mechanically digested by the grinding of his molars. 2

After he both chemically and mechanically digested me and turned me to mush, he shoved me to the back of his mouth. He swallowed me, putting me into his esophagus. I would've gone into the windpipe if it weren't for the epiglottis. I am now going down because of the waves of muscle contraction, the peristalsis. 3

Ugh! I fell into a pool of digestive juice, or hydrochloric acid. This must be the stomach. It's churning me. That and the acid with pepsin are changing me from a solid to a liquid. I am now leaving. I wonder why that acid didn't melt the stomach? Must be that slimy mucus. 4

This small intestine is chemically digesting me. My nutrients are being absorbed from the villus. I'm only a solid because of fiber. There's more enzymes that came from the pancreas. There's also bile, which comes from the liver and stored in the gallbladder. It's physically breaking down my fat. Man, this is taking a long time. 5

I'm sick of this. After going through the small intestine for hours, now I'm in the large intestine. It's readying me for elimination, while some bacteria are making vitamin K out of me. Now I'm being compressed into a solid in this rectum. I think I'm finally leaving through the anus. I am! Freedom! And I'm not dead, somehow. Interesting. Well, goodbye. 6
