What is a brain freeze?

What is commonly referred to as 'brain freeze' happens when you ingest something that is very cold too rapidly. When the cold touches your soft palate it constricts the blood vessels in the area, and then when they dilate it causes pain at the back the eyes or even up into the forehead. Your brain does not really freeze; you just get a more pain for a short period.
