Avoiding that yucky feeling. Why does a heavy meal work?
I have seldom had a problem with strong cigars but it has happened once or twice and I am now more prone to watch what I smoke and when I smoke and I am more aware of the potential for trouble. But what is the science behind the fact that a heavy meal helps you tolerate a strong cigar better? And are we basically referring to the tolerance of just nicotine? And does the type of foods eaten have a different effect? Say, if you ate a only meat but no carbs, would you still be able to tolerate the stronger cigars? And what about sugar? How does a teaspoon of sugar help fight off that yucky feeling?

I've also noticed that if I smoke the same cigar and drink something with caffeine, it will kick me in the gut far more often.
But that's just me.
Caffeine is essentially a speed booster. So, that's why taking your perc with your coffee, made your body process the pill faster...so you got more of the medicine, faster. Food can also affect caffeine. If you have a stomach full of food, you can take in more caffeine, than you could on an empty stomach.
hard to see on a phone.

Strong cigar + heavy metal = no "yucky" feeling
Made sense to me.
