      Brain freeze happens when you eat something very cold like ice cream or cold beverages, normally when you eat or drink them very fast. This happens because there is a nerve in the mouth that is connected to the brain so when it is cold it makes the veins around the brain going thinner (cold shrink things) and it looks like you ahve a headache or little pain
