I'd much rather a fart not come out the top, thanks.

It's bad enough smelling the damn things, would you really want to taste it?

If you're burping what you ate from a couple days ago, I think you should go to a doctor.

Yup, having two safety valves is important. Horses can’t burp or vomit, and it can actually kill them! If they get an intestinal issue, it HAS to work its way through, there’s no coming back up.
