Any one that has done a serious bit of drinking doesn’t need a biology degree to realize that greasy food after a big night out will usually help cure a queasy belly. Some brilliant researchers in the U.K. decided to figure just exactly why that is.
“Bread is high in carbohydrates and bacon is full of protein, which breaks down into amino acids. Your body needs these amino acids, so eating them will make you feel good.”
Ms Roberts told The Mirror: “Bingeing on alcohol depletes neurotransmitters too, but bacon contains a high level of aminos which tops these up, giving you a clearer head.”
Goddamn I love U.K. scientists! First it was beer goggles and now it’s bacon sandwiches. Looks like I’d better pick up a package of bacon along with the case of beer at the store tonight.
