The Best Dishes for Hangovers in America
Hangover cures are like hiccup cures - everyone has a theory about what works best. The online, ahem, "literature" about what constitutes the best hangover cures consists of all kinds of baloney:

Eat bananas... Peanut butter! No, prickly pear juice! Coconut water! Drink coffee... Don't drink coffee! If you do drink coffee, drink a lot of water! Eat fried foods! But only before drinking, not after.
Have a little hair of the dog. Try a Prairie Oyster... Stop, drinking again is the worst thing to do - it causes alcohol dependency. Eat burned toast... No, drink sports drinks!

Take Advil... Don't take Advil! It will explode your liver. Take aspirin. B-6. B-12. Rosiglitazone... No, Berocca.
For many, food is the best cure - something to make you feel better, whether it's mental or not. There are the boring options - cheesy pastas, egg platters - but there are intriguing ones, too.
