    It's apparently your body compensating - too much. It feels cold in your mouth - assumes all your heads cold - then pumps loads more blood around your brain giving you the headache. Thats why putting heat and pressure up there with your thumb stops this reaction, and stops the pain.

    Just learn to eat cold stuff without it touching the roof of your mouth

    And when you've done that - teach me how
    Now go away before I taunt you a second time.

    Ohh... brainfreeze... don't think it has happened to me since last summer or so, but it really hurts...

    Now I got reminded of the pain... aaaaarghh... the PAIN!

    I'll try the tonguepushing technique next time I get it...
    Light travels faster than sound. Is this why some people appear bright until you hear them speak?
