So I'm sure that more than one of you woke up with the nasty feeling called a hangover. But fear not my friends, there are many ways to chase away the nausea and generally lousy feeling.
1) Gatorade - Ah yes, the drink of athletes, and maybe this is why. For the record, I find purple to be the best
2) A hearty, greasy breakfast - Fried foods are your friend right now. A couple of nice greasy eggs (preferably over easy and runny) and some bacon or sausage will really help to chase the demons away. Serving in a dirty ashtray topped with cheese is entirely optional.
3) Chocolate Milk - Before trying this, make sure you understand, I'm not talking about mixing syrup with milk...and that would be bad. Milk, when you are hungover will actually curdle in your stomach, for some reason the store bought cartons of chocolate milk do not.
4) Swiss Chalet - Only people from Canada will know what I'm talking about here. My personal recommendation goes to the quarter chicken dinner with fries (white meat only) Personally, I think it's something in the chalet sauce that is what is actually working.
5) Hair of the Dog - If you own a dog, take a big bite out of him. Hopefully he has fleas which will provide needed protein XD. Yes hair of the dog, combating alcohol with alcohol. Now before you start pounding back tequila shots and send your liver screaming for the door, there are two drinks in particular that will aid in helping the hangover. These are, the Bloody Ceaser and a Red Eye. I'm sure some of you already know what a ceaser, for those who don't know what a red eye is though, let me explain. There are many recipes for this drink, but I find the one that works best to cure a hangover. The recipe I would use is beer, tomato or clamato juice, Worcestershire sauce and one raw egg. Note that this is not a sipping drink and should be drunk in one go. If you can get it to your lips, this will definitely help to cure you of the post party blues.
6) Stay Drunk - I don't recommend this method as we all have to sober up once in a while (unless you're Charlie Sheen)
So these are six tried and tested cures for the hangover. I know there are more, but these are the ones I have always found work best for me. Feel free to post any you have that I may have missed.
Happy New Year Everybody!
