Simply, it doesn’t. Solid food is broken down in your intestines and eventually expelled from your bowel. On the way, blood vessels extract moisture from your bowel contents by osmosis.

Your kidneys filter your blood, and extract excess minerals and water, which are excreted from your bladder in the form of urine.
