After eating or drinking something that affects your digestive system, think coffee and a big breakfast, why does it only seem to take 10 or 15 minutes to affect your stomach and cause a trip to the bathroom? On average I think it takes food about 4 to 6 hours to be passed through, so why does it hit so quickly?

Food goes to your stomach first, immediately. Most digestion actually happens in the intestines and colon after leaving the stomach.
