      This actually makes a lot of sense. Don’t want the first place everyone runs in a red alert to be sick bay for some Sober Ups

      A further umm actually, couldn’t they just make future tech that could make you sober and kill hangovers also in an instant when required?

        Yeah it’s called synthehol lol. It’s why it exists, it stops the buzz quickly after and doesn’t make you hungover. You don’t need a high tech solution when you have a magic alcohol that gets you drunk but doesn’t get you drunk.

        The entire “replicated vs cooked” meals and “synthehol and alcohol” differences are there to make some people seem like “experts” but in the end just make them look like snobs. Shit’s probably 99.99999% the same.

          My bad, I thought it was something like alcohol free drinks that taste the same or maybe have an extremely light buzz.
