This question is worded a little odd, but what I’m trying to ask is why do people specifically eat things like bananas and soup after getting hammered? I’m wondering if this is just a craving thing or if there’s something about these foods I’m not aware of

Ok so hangovers are largely 2 problems that are super related. You are dehydrated (largely due to all the urinating but also because of things like sweating while also not consuming water) and essentially nutrient starved – some get urinated out/sweat out others just don’t absorbed because your body is processing what it can faster*
Seriously, there is a reason why there are specific things that if you consume them the emergency advice is consume alcohol RIGHT NOW and get to the ER RIGHT NOW, your body actually processes alcohol over quite a few other things in a ‘first in line’ situation.
Ultimately ‘hangover food’ usually aims to do one of two things. Either make you ignore the hangover effects (aka ‘hair of the dog’/alcohol again) or replenish what was lost. Some do both. I will never believe that any person actually likes a bloody mary BUT technically it is an amazing ‘cure’ it has alcohol but is also hydrating and has a ton of vitamins that your body needs to ‘get over’ the hangover.
