Um, I believe that you can choke.

Food that is not chewed throughly could be too large too swallow and runs the risk of choking. In addition, food not shewed thoroughly has not had enough time for the saliva enzymes (such as amylase) to do the preliminary breaking down of long-chain carbohydrates (such as starch). This means the stomach and other areas of the digestive tract will need to do more work to break down the food.

You might get a stomach ache, due to the stomach having to do extra work to break down the foods.

Your digestion starts in your mouth. If you just quickly chew and swallow, haven't allowed the digestive enzymes to begin processing your food. YOu are missing out on about 1/2 of the nutritional benefits of your food. It's like wasting money and time. When the food gets into your stomach it is in too large particles and it doesn't have those enzymes to break them down. It can cause bloating and gas and just plain waste.
