why do you get a headache after eating ice cream
Cold-stimulus headache A cold-stimulus headache, also known as brain freeze, ice-cream headache, trigeminal headache[1][2] or its given scientific name sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia (meaning "pain of the sphenopalatine ganglion"), is a form of brief pain or headache commonly associated with consumption (particularly quick consumption) of cold beverages or foods such as ice cream and ice pops. It is caused by having something cold touch the roof of the mouth, and is believed to result from a nerve response causing rapid constriction and swelling of blood vessels[3] or a "referring" of pain from the roof of the mouth to the head.[4][5] The rate of intake for cold foods has been studied as a contributing factor.[6][7] A cold-stimulus headache is distinct from dentin hypersensitivity, a type of pain that can occur under similar circumstances.
Banana split A banana split is an ice cream-based dessert. In its traditional form it is served in a long dish called a boat. A banana is cut in half lengthwise (hence the name) and laid in the dish. There are many variations, but the classic banana split is made with three scoops of ice cream (one each of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry.[1][2]) served between the split banana. A sauce or sauces (chocolate, strawberry, and pineapple are traditional) are drizzled onto the ice cream, then crushed nuts (generally peanuts or walnuts[3]) and whipped cream, then topped with a maraschino cherry.
