I’m hungover as sin - what do I want for dinner?

I don’t normally get hangovers but I have broken myself!

don’t know if I want comfort food or something so spicy it makes me sweat. Takeaway or cooking? I can’t make a decision but I know I need an excellent dinner to fix me.

What would you have?

All I could manage was a bag of haribo.

Then a lasagne.

then a tub of Hagen Dazs 😬

RJnomore1 · 14/10/2023 18:29

Dominos pizza. Same boat here although feeling better now.

MillyMoo1113 · 14/10/2023 18:30

Pasta in tomato soup with loads of cheese and some full fat proper coke. Every time

@Electrictache 😂😂😂

This thread was a bad idea - I want absolutely everything mentioned…

DP, who's also suffering is going kebab. I’m between Chinese and Indian at the moment.

Now I want ice cream. That's the drawback of my chosen takeaway, I can't add a tub of Ben and Jerry's.

I was hung over last weekend. Worst one I've ever had but I completely deserved it. I just went mad, shots and basically any drink that was put in front of me. I was shaky for most of the day and managed some Chinese takeaway later on.

I think it's really sad @Chelsea26 that you can't go out and have a good time without getting drunk. Do you have a problem? 😞

Only kidding, I'm fucking dying here and ordering a Chinese. 😄 You need fat and carbs plus fizzy pop.

I was just about to eye roll and think - there's ALWAYS ONE evangelical twat 😂

Well played.

So hangover food has to be Thai chicken fried rice, bbq sauce, prawn crackers.
and a large glass of something really cold- orange juice and lemonade maybe

IdealisticCynic · 14/10/2023 18:35

My go hangover dinner is a cheeseburger, chips and a milkshake. Fat, carbs and sugar!

Pleasedontdoit2023 · 14/10/2023 18:36

Cheesy beans always hit the spot !

settleupandgo · 14/10/2023 18:38

Last time I was that hungover I had mcds for breakfast, then again for lunch and Chinese for dinner. I sat in my pj's all day and drank what felt like a million cups of tea.

Coffeedrinker7 · 14/10/2023 18:39

Salt and vinegar chipsticks and a can of sprite 😁

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 14/10/2023 18:43

I was suffering a bit this morning, I had….

4 packs of Wotsits
a large bowl of muesli
a large jacket potato with a load of butter and a ton of cheese

…..by 10 am 😂

Luckydog7 · 14/10/2023 18:43

Chinese in my experience makes it worse (possibly because I eat it until I'm nausous) and its harder to eat all those noodles etc.

I'd go, Curry fried ried rice dumped into a bowl and eaten with a spoon, followed by cake and icecream.

Ftumch · 14/10/2023 18:43

Spicy ramen is the best hangover cure! And a can of Coke.

Luckydog7 · 14/10/2023 18:44

Or just bowls and bowls of crunchy nut cornflakes with cold milk...

gingercat02 · 14/10/2023 18:44

Fry up. It's the only answer (that isn't hair of the dog)

theduchessofspork · 14/10/2023 18:45

Curry

Or this, obviously 😁

Or eggs plus toast or potato waffles

LusaBatoosa · 14/10/2023 18:48

Jerk chicken, rice and peas, oxtail gravy. Lots of ice cold coke. Super fudgy chocolate brownie for pudding.

therealcookiemonster · 14/10/2023 18:49

you need carbs and loads of water

theduchessofspork · 14/10/2023 18:49

Or, a large portion of fish shop chips with cheddar grated over.

A friend used to have jacket potato with lashings of cheese and butter with chips on the side which I always felt was genius

But overall still curry. You could get a paratha on the side

weegiemum · 14/10/2023 18:50

I've had a 6 pack of word it's today and I wasn't even hungover 😂

spinspinsugars · 14/10/2023 18:51

McDonald's every time! With fizzy pop, apple pie and McFlurry 🐷

mbosnz · 14/10/2023 18:52

Fish and chips, or a pie.
