McDonald's Big Mac and a BFC (Big F*ckin' Coke). Works every time to cure a hangover.

I also forgot to mention Gyros...which, in my house, is a sleep-on-the-couch offense...

Thanks for the link.

My experience tells me that if you plan on overdrinking, stay away from clear liquors. Stick with a dark rum.

A huge, greasy burger from the diner the next morning works miracles.

Garoraide works for me. Close to water, but seems to do the trick. That and a LOT of Advil.

It's "congeners," and in my experience the less of them the better. I prefer Skyy vodka, which is specially distilled to get rid of them.

THE worst hangover I ever had was a young and stupid MP sitting down and knocking off a fifth of scotch all by my lonesome.

I was sick for three days.

It took a trip to Scotland to rekindle my love of good whiskey.

My contribution:
To resolve the hangover takes two mere steps.
!. Take a nice healthy crap.
2. A bowl of fresh menudo.

All of the above suggestions have merit, but to *prevent* the hangover in the first place this product is amazing:

If you can't find them, two activated charcoal capsules (natural food store) and 1 extra strength tums every 3-4 hours of drinking has the same effect.

I've tried both of the above with a wide variety (and quantities) of liquors and have awoken without a trace of a hangover every time.

Two tacos. Beef Fajitas, beans, cheese and rice therein.

Cures what ails ya.

Chili Cheese Burrito, Taco Supremes and a Dew. or

Jalepino White Casltes, chicken rings, and a coke. or

Coneys no onions, Saganaki, and a chocolate milk (maybe a Gyro too).

Water is good if you wake up during the night, not while you're still drunk.

Never underestimate a couple of B-12 or B-50 tablets before bed, and again first thing in the morning.
ALSO,
Remember that New Years Eve is for amateurs; professionals drink like that any time,
AND,
Never forget that you don't HAVE to drink the whole world under the table. Moderation in all things.

Never forget that you don't HAVE to drink the whole world under the table.

Whoa whoa, back up the truck. When did this happen?

All I know is: Gin is evil.

As for vodka-related hangovers... a "night cap" consisting of a large regular Coke and anything greasy (preferably leftover Beef Wellington since I'm a snob) is good.

As to the rest, I plead the Twinkie defense.

Ah, Kate, there is nothing better in the summer (or year-round as you get to enjoy) than a Bombay Saphire Gin Martini - "up with olive, please". Mmmmm.

As for the Double Chaser, I just read an article in the Chicago Tribune about the results of testing of the DC, and it supposedly works (according to the U of Chicago).

Mmmm...Sapphire Gin Martini....mmmmm. Can I start drinking now?

Remember to avoid Tylenol (and its generic forms) while drinking - LIVER DAMAGE (and not the good kind--er if there is a good kind).

Fruit juice. I do still believe in the dehydration theory, though beyond a certain point these are toxins in the blood. As I understand it, the nasty stuff turns into a formaldehyde-like substance the next day.

I don't believe any of this hoo-ha about the color of booze affecting the hangover. Hangovers seem to come from drinking too much . . . or did I miss something?
