No, they pop and a coin or some points come out.

In smw they enemies just fall off the screen, or, if you have yoshi, they just disintegrate in a puff of smoke.

The world would be a much cleaner place if people would eat their own trash.

Well, do you have any idea how kid-unfriendly it would be if the levels were populated with Goomba corpses?

Reminds me of a semi-amusing story, as accurate as I can remember it...

Years back, my brother and I were over at a friend of our parents' house, as our parents were visiting and brought us along.  These friends had a couple of daughters, and they had an NES.
So, my brother was playing Super Mario Bros. 2.  He was running around and throwing shy guys at each other, when the younger of the daughters interrupts.
"Stop!"  She said.
"What?"  My brother questioned.
"Those are my boyfriends!  Stop killing my boyfriends!"
"I'm not killing them.  They're falling off the bottom into the boyfriend box, which sits under the bottom of the T.V."
She seemed satisfied by this.  And so the concept of the "boyfriend box" has lived on in infamy.

Goombas dissappear and die, and they go to Goomba Heaven or (I think) become Boos. That's why there are so many Boos.

If goombas turn into boos, then what happens when Mario jumps on a boo? (IE SMS)

Their borderline physical forms dissipate, and it takes them a long time to get it back together again.  It's a really annoying process, so the boos aren't particularly fond mario jumping on 'em.

The Goombas are sucked into a collection box that is under the ground. It is there where they are ground up into Mario Munchies, the popular MK snackfood.

Well, since most Mario games are sidescrollers I always figured that they just squished really flat so you couldn't seem them from the angle you were looking at.  
200 characters and nothing to say.

 pretty good explanation, fifth

What happens when Yoshi eats a ghost then? (IE Hotel Delfino's attic)

Goombas disappear because the Boyfriend Box is over populated.

I don't think Yoshi eating ghosts would be much different from Tubba Blubba eating them.  They'd be trapped inside of him, taking up no space.

I think Goombas disappear because after Mario stomps on them, they teleport to the Superbowl.
