I've had the stomach flu for 3 days. finally feeling a little better. only eating crackers and drinking gatorade, but why do i have excessive burping?

You are: probably swallowing air!!! Eat SLOWLY and avoid drinking the Gatorade WHILE you are eating the crackers! You are doing the right thing! Keep it up but if not resolving in a WEEK call your PCP! Hope this helps! Dr Z
