Bobert

There once was a food particle, that’s name was Bobby. He and his fellow amino acids formed a protein called cheese. This cheese added with the other ingredients, make the Italy’s infamous pizza. Bobby didn’t know much about the digestive system before today but he sure will soon.

It was the big day for bobby and the cheese, it was the day they were going to be assembled into a pizza and enjoyed by the customer. Him and all the amino acids were so juiced but little did they know they were soon to embark on an incredible journey through the human body.

“ ORDER NUMBER 78! 78 COME GET YOUR ORDER,” said the man behind the counter. An alone man came and picked it up,” Saying thank you,” while on the way back to his table. The man was ready to chow-down so he swooped up the piece that Bobby accommoded, and inhaled it like it was nothing. Bobby was astonished and horrified because now he was in the man’s dungeon. This was like no other place Bobby has been before. It was moist, humid, smelly, warm and there were massive white “things” that moved up and down. But weirdest of ALL, there was a very powerful slithering snack thing that was at the abyss of the dungeon. Within seconds of observing all these mysterious features Bobby found himself being squeezed by what he thought was an enormous snake because of the constricting walls that forced him into a giant pool of stinging fluids.

Bobby was even more scared now because the acids were doing something really weird! They were being squirted out little spouts on the roof of the stomach to straighten the protein monomers into long strings so the can be more maneuverable through the small intestines. Bobby had no idea what was happening and then all of a sudden a gapping hole opened up in the wall out the stomach and all that was in the stomach was emptied out into a long thin tube. Bobby wasn’t really that scared cause he wasn’t closhchiphobic. In this place there were spouts like in the stomach but these juices started to cut him up into smaller pieces called amino acids. We need the proteins to be broken into acids in order for Bobby and his friends to be absorbed.

Bobby thought he was tripping of the juices from the walls because he was really astonished at the fact that he was being absorbed by the walls. From the walls Bobby was swept away by raging blood in the artery running by the small intestines. Bobby thought this was awesome! Soon he came to somewhat of an intersection. He was really bumbed out cause because he had to turn into smaller looking blood vessels called capillaries. Once he came turned he knew he would regret this immensely for the fact that it haunted him. What Bobby saw was enzymes attracting to amino acid molecules, sucked them in and spit them out as a fused together, protein polymer. Almost instantaneously a cell would pick it up, fold, and absorb it! At this point of the story Bobby really wasn’t trusting his eyes because he’s never seen these term of events happen before. Before Bobby could think if what he was seeing was actually happening, he was slurped by an enzyme and never heard of again.
