You’re eating ice cream, a little too fast, when suddenly you get that sharp pain. I think most people call it “Brain Freeze” but I get the pain in the hollow just behind my right ear! My hubby gets the pain in his shoulder!
When you eat ice cream too fast, where do you feel your “brain freeze”?
What’s odd is that sometimes I can down an entire Slurpee without getting one, yet on other occasions I get struck down with a stabbing pain after each sip.
Right in the top of my head. Interesting side note to get rid of it quickly. Push on the roof of your mouth with your tongue, right at the soft pallet.
Ive always found it easer to get forgiveness rather than permission.
Right behind the eyes. And the tongue-on-the-roof-of-the-mouth thing doesn’t work for me!
Seldom with ice cream – often with icees, a Slurpee-like thing they sell across the street here. But they have the best cherry flavoring – it’s almost worth it.
