Icecream Headache Immunity?

In my life I've never had a brain freeze. Yet I've watched other people just crippled by this condition. Are most people effected by this? Or are some people just really sensitive?

I really don't know... I'm like you though I love ice cream and coke slurpies and pretty much anything that is really cold and really sweet. i have seen my friends go down to a brain freeze and I often wonder if its because they get greedy and go for too much at once, as where I like to savor mine. I feel bad for people who do get it though, it looks like it really hurts!

It seems so crippling whenever I see someone have one

I don't know what causes a brain freeze but I had one just the other day. It is no fun let me tell you. It really hurts. I didn't eat the ice cream fast so I don't think that has anything to do with it. I don't get one very often but it would make me happy if I never got a brain freeze.

I get brain freeze once in a while. Like some who already posted, I didn't get it either because I drank/sip/slurp/eat it very quickly. Sometimes I get it just as I start to drink any frozen drink, sometimes I get it when I'm almost finished with the drink so I don't really know what's going on there. I know it's not good that is why I'm glad it only takes a minute or two for it to go away.
