What Causes Bowel Movement After Eating?

Whatever I eat passes out of my body within an hour.. it happens even for small meal like a bowl of fruits or biscuits. Also I feel very hungry after I take a meal, especially if I take fruits I feel very hungry in 15-20 mins after the meal. may I have the reason for this?
