If it hasn't happened to you, count yourself as lucky. For many people, eating ice cream or drinking an icy drink too fast can produce a really painful headache. It usually hits in the front of the brain, behind the forehead. The technical name for this phenomenon is cold-stimulus headache, but people also refer to it as 'ice cream headache' or 'brain freeze.'
The good news is that brain freeze is easy to prevent - just eat more slowly. The other bit of good news is these headaches don't last very long - a minute at the outside.
