“… bringing up food without nausea, retching or disgust. The food is then ejected from the mouth (if liquid allowed to run out) or reswallowed.” (Kanner, L. 1962). “The constriction of the muscles which brings vomitus to the mouth and a reingestion of the vomitus.” (Davis, Weiseler, Hanzel, 1980). “Rumination is a pathological condition in which previously ingested food is vomited and immediately reconsumed.” (Borreson, P. M., Anderson, J. L., 1982).
