Many people have their own special concoctions for curing—or eluding themselves to think they’re curing—their hangovers, but this infographic sheds light on the most outlandish international hangover cures of them all. Imgur user, who goes by the name neomam, posted the infographic and it includes 12 strange cures, which you will either deem useful or make you more nauseous than you already are.
In the Philippines, for example, they go to the great length of eating a fertilized duck embryo called ‘Balut’ to cure a hangover. The embryo contains cysteine, which is a substance that breaks down the hangover-causing toxin called acetaldehyde.
Another bizarre remedy includes eating a pair of pickled sheep eyeballs in tomato soup, which originates in Hungary. Would you try such a thing just to get through the day with less of a headache?
