Cure Your Hangover

|


Had a rough night?

Here's an idea, from the bottom of an interesting NYT piece on the peculiar status of alcohol in Iraq:

"These days some of Baghdad's most popular drinking places, apart from the speakeasies, are those that sell a brew that Iraqis know as pacha. With a history going back to Ottoman times, pacha comes from boiling goat's heads until the bones dissolve into a creamy broth.

According to the legend among hard-drinking Iraqis, a glass or two of pacha, after a night on the bottle, will cure the most stubborn hangover."

Makes mustard gas sound appealing.
