The thing is that cows can’t digest grass either. They have an extra stomach along their oesophagus which is basically just a pouch where the grass goes in first. There are a lot of bacteria and they can digest grass. Then these bacteria grow because they eat the grass.
Then the cow swallows these bacteria and digests those. That’s where a cow gets their calories from.

Humans can't digest anything without bacteria either.

Cows only have 1 stomach. That is devided in 4 compartments.
