Why do you burp?
Extra gas is forced out of the stomach, up through the esophagus, connecting the back of the throat to the stomach & out the mouth.

When eating and drinking, people swallow air along with their food. This air is then released up through the esophagus by burping.

A burp is nothing but gas. When you eat or drink, you don't just swallow food or liquid. You also swallow air at the same time.
