Many times, the truth just needs to be heard. Many times, people will be glad that you’ve said what you felt. Sometimes, people are relieved when you finally say what you are truly feeling. Other times, they resent you for it. Remember that old saying? “Stick and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me.” That’s false. Don’t believe me? Try to think of a time when someone said something, anything, that pissed you off or made you feel uncomfortable. I’ll wait…..

Well, that didn’t take long. By the way, I’m sorry for bringing that up. You get the point. So why is it we get so moody when whiskey hits our lips? Why do we speak our mind when the wine starts flowing? Where does this bravado and liquid courage come from?

Simply put; alcohol consumption lowers our inhibitions. Inhibitions are what make us self-conscious and less likely to act how we feel. Alcohol doesn’t make us do bad things, but it does lower our inhibitions. This means that we don’t think much about how things will play out after we say or do something, we also don’t care as much for whatever the consequence may be (at the time).

Alcohol demands our brains to release more serotonin and endorphins. These chemicals dictate our emotions and how we feel. The more we drink, the more our brain is affected, ultimately swaying our moods based on our circumstances. It could be the tension within a fight between you and your partner or even the excitement you feel when entering a bar or club. Whatever the situation is, we feel so revved up about it because we have an excess of mood altering chemicals flooding our brain. 

Next time you enjoy a few adult beverages, keep Jean-Jaques Rousseau’s french philosophy in mind, “A drunk mind speaks a sober heart.” Or maybe don’t take what he says too personally. After all, he was known to be a bit of a drunk himself. At least he speaks the truth! Right?

(Truth be told, we might have been drinking when we wrote this).

So after you drop to your knees and thank the food truck gods for having deliciously unhealthy drunk food on patrol when you’re out on the town – I’m curious to see what have been some of the most unique foods you guys have drunkly bought from the almighty food trucks? Share in the comments!

Personally – the weirdest thing I bought was at a food truck in Miami where I got some part of a pig (I care not to find out what it really was) that was marinated in some native Cuban spices and deep fried on a stick. As good as was, I’m still a little weary as to what I really ate that night. Then again, at 2am after a night out… deep fried anything on a stick sounds pretty good to just about anyone.

Cheers,
