Maybe he has a swallowing problem, or it could be a behavioural problem. The tongue may not be functioning normally, etc... A specialist will definitely sort this out for you. If the problem is physical, then there are many simple surgeries to correct it.

Is he spitting up after swallowing or just spitting them out of his mouth after tasting? Could be he just needs more time learning how to swallow, or he doesn't like the taste. How many different foods have you tried, and have you watered them down so they aren't so thick? My niece has this thing that looks like a pacifier, but instead of a nipple, it has a soft netted pouch to put mushy food in--it has helped her learn to eat fruit. We got it at Babies 'R' Us.
