you serious?

how much is a shit load?


There's a sub sandwich place across the street that sells like 9 inch pickles.. they are huge, there always seems to be a lot of girls there :worried:

Depends....Some can contain up to 40 calories per (5)chips or 1 pickle.

I don't count calories.. I was more thinking what else they contain.. I'm talking like a pickle spear, normal size they give you on the side w/ a sub sandwich.. i love pickles

i'm pretty confident that it's somewhat true. i had this DJ at the bar i worked at and he never got hungover, despite drinking copious amounts of booze nightly. i noticed he always got a small plate of those sliced pickles from the late night greasy spoon we all ate at afterwards. i started doing it myself, it helps. even drinking a tad of the brine will.....
 
I will get shit faced wasted tonight and consume large amounts of pickles and report back

Every site I look up has different info. Are there a million different forms of pickles? This is annoying

I don't even know.. I think I like the dill ones, not a certain brand.. I don't buy them I just eat them across the street

I was just wondering if they were high in anything?

Whaat?! No way that's true, that would only intensify your hangover. There are a few main culprits that aid in a hangover.

Your brain can swell from dehydration causing the headache, so drink plenty of water before going to bed.

The byproducts left from the alcohol breakdown in the liver depletes the body of cystein. It has been found that eating eggs the morning after or before bed helps replenish the body of this.

You also throw your body into an electrolyle imbalance so the sports drinks can be helpfull in replenishing yourself of these valuable e'lyles.

Your body also becomes hypoglycemic(low blood sugar) as a rebound effect of the alcohol so sugar the morning after also helps.

A major misconception is the use of aspirin for a hangover, aspirin is metabolized in the liver, so it's not a good idea to put the liver to work while it's trying to recover. Stick with acetaminophen(tylenol).

Well, dill's would not contain any sugar like a sweet pickle would, so you're good there.

I'm thinking the only thing would be the salt. Which really can't be all that bad in a single pickle.

i wouldn't even try to claim it if it hadn't worked for me. i've even sipped the brine while i had a hangover and it helped. maybe it's a placebo....for me. plus, i just love pickles...
