    Don’t know about you, but when I get a brain freeze, I don’t have any thoughts except for AAAAAAAAAAAA.

      Consider yourself very lucky, they suck out loud.

      Brain freeze also called ice cream headaches happen when the roof of the mouth and/or soft palette are rapidly cooled, often by eating frozen food like ice cream, smoothies, slushies etc. The pain gets referred to the entire volume of the head, it can feel like you’ve been hit in the eye or the top of the head with a hammer. Eating warm food can quickly stop it; I personally, if I get fast food with a shake or something I can feel it coming and I’ll eat a french fry or two to stop or prevent it.
