    Well of course I am guilty of that. My problem is not so much the puking but that afterwards I
    have a bad taste for it -- I used to love scotch, now I cannot drink it without cringing because
    of that experience.

    I had a similar incident with Southern Comfort. I used to love it but now I can't stand the
    smell of it.

    e.

    I know a lot of people who've lost the taste for certain alcohols as a result of overconsumption.
    Lucky for me the only alcohol I can claim to have lost through this is Grand Mariner and I can
    still mix with that and don't have any problems.

    I know what you mean. Gran Marnier and Sambucca are tied for the world's worst hangover precursors.
    Many years ago when traveling we had quite a bit of travel money left over so we went down to the
    hotel bar and had a Gran Marnier, followed by many more. It was a bad move. The next morning when
    our plane took off I thought I was going to die. I didn't lose my taste for the stuff, but I now
    limit myself, never having more than one small glass of the stuff at a sitting. It is still has its
    magic for me, but I treat it with respect.

    My poor wife is suffering a liqueur hangover this morning. We were at by brother's for dinner last
    night. She had a few drinks before dinner, wine with dinner. Then we had some port. I had only one
    port, but she and my brother had a few more. Then he brought out some Kalhua and kept filling her
    glass. I told her that I did not want to hear her asking "Why did you let me drink so much?" . She
    made it to bed, but had to get up a few times to talk to the porcelain phone and she is still in bed
    feeling horrible. I wonder how my brother is feeling. He had to get up early and go to work.

    i think it's a reaction to what the body perceives as 'food poisoning.' you have a learned aversion
    to something that made you sick.

    Try drinking WAY TOO MUCH of it one night, and experience the dubious please of projectile vomiting
    for distance-then call me.

    I believe you misunderstood me, I have been in such a scenario. I fail to see the problem in no
    longer liking Southern Comfort..... 🙂

    A three day hangover leaves a hell of an impression.

    For me it would be Tequilla. Ended up w/a shiner the next day, after getting into a, sorta,
    disagreement w/a burly female bouncer. Never again...........

    Which means you've lost a great way to consume antioxidants
    - by mixing SC with cranberry juice.

    LOL! AFAC: "Scarlet O'Hara" a day keeps the wrinkles away and I'll stay young by buying American.

    Practice safe eating - always use condiments

    Wow! You must have been trying out for the hangover olympics.

    IOW: Anyone who survives alcohol poisioning to that degree, is lucky to be alive and still
    talking about it.
