How about best places? I threw up at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, but it was only water.

Got sick, and threw up essentially pure Powerade, electric blue in color, still tasting like “berry.” I stood there, marveling that absolutely no traces of chocolate seemed to be in the toilet. A few minutes later, pure chocolate Muscle Milk came back up. The only thing I could figure was that, like a black and tan poured properly, the Muscle Milk must have formed a distinct layer below the Powerade.

You’re a queue, not a stack.

How do you guys throw up large chunks and cold food? Do you swallow ice cream whole?

Bananas. Taste good going down, taste good coming up. Best thing to eat on a boat if you tend to get seasick.

A Blue Angels pilot I met said if you have to eat before flying with them, make it bananas, because they taste exactly the same coming up as they did going down.  
I did have an A-4 pilot black me out, but I never threw up.  
Apparently pussies can’t handle 8 G’s for more than a couple of seconds.

The best for visuals was a whole mushroom and pepperoni pizza and about 10 tequila shots. All over the inside of a bathroom stall in my dorm, circa 1992. Good times.

Penn of Penn & Teller [got to go up in the Vomit Comet](http://youtu.be/VBrCmxPbcbM). [He wrote](http://www.quut.com/archive/penn-how-to-fly/):

_I decided to have a Cinnebon (“You pig!”) for breakfast because I thought it might taste nice coming back up._

Not a former bulimic, but this is a sick, disgusting habit of mine - I sort of hold the ice cream in reserve in my esophagus or upper stomach, belch it up, re-taste it, and swallow it, because it feels so good in my mouth the second time.

Yeah, yeah, that’s what _ **she** _ said…

I’ll go with a bunch of booze, since then I’d be drunk enough that I wouldn’t remember throwing up.

Ice cream. If you do it soon enough, it’s still cool, but it’s a lot creamier.

I’m fourthing the ice cream - just be aware that if you’re seasick enough, and you’ve eaten the ice cream with pink wafers, you may just be convinced you’ve brought up a lung.

I know I was.

I can testify to this as someone who formerly had a binge/purge disorder.
