Water absorption and storage. It's natural.

Eat one jellybean. If you feel bloated thereafter, it's in your head and nowhere else.

It can be many reasons. You may swallow air when you eat. Your digestion produces gas. You have slow digestion or have trouble digesting.

Also different foods digest at different rates, things like beef and certain proteins take a longer time to digest, especially when mixed with other foods in one meal.

For better digestive health, it's good not to mix certain food types in one meal. You will find that food will digest better if you avoid mixing certain foods.

Try not to mix protein rich foods(chicken, beef, eggs, fish) with carbohydrates(potatoes, pasta, bread, rice). Only eat protein rich foods with watery vegetables(lettuce, cucumber, tomato). Only eat carbohydrates with watery vegetables. Eat fruit on it's own.
