How fast does any fuel you ingest get metabolized and made ready to burn?

I can't see there being any sudden/immediate fueling effect unless the body holds back some energy as a "reserve" and only releases it immediately if the system believes that more fuel is coming in. IE: you eat something the system recognizes as a replenishment and release the "reserves" it was holding back to keep you alive.
