What Happens to the Trash in the Garbage Disposal?

I know, my questions astound you. 
But I really do need to know. I mean there's just gobs of food we so non-nonchalantly stick down the garbage disposal, pull the switch, it starts growling and poof all the food is gone. Where does it go? Do I need to empty something out? 
Do you even use or have a garbage disposal?

That's good because I wouldn't know where to go to empty anything. Going down the sewer makes it all nice and neat. Thanks Lakota.

That seems to be the consensus. Grind, drain, sewer. Thank goodness.

Oh I really hope so. Honestly, I have no idea. But that's what my daughter said too.

I think the garbage disposal probably goes to the same place as the sewer does. And I have never heard of anyone having to empty anything. Just keep that clean so it doesn't smell. It can get really bad. Alittle bleach poured down it does the trick. I can handle the goo that forms if you don't keep it clean.

I mentioned using bleach to my daughter. This is her first house and there's a lot of questions she's asking we don't have answers for. I can now pass on to her that bleach is a good idea. Thanks, my friend.
