It's particularly noticeable with wine. The sugar taste is much more obvious at warmer temps.

Yep, I almost always want water after ice cream.

I'm actually experiencing that phenomenon right now. Just had a little Americone Dream and I am really thirsty.

whenever I have rich icecream, or just a lot of it, I need water or something similar

I always thought the same thing. I'm a soda jerk but if i'm having ice cream I gotta have water, and a lot of it

As a diabetic, I have noticed that when sugar levels are high, I crave water. Ice cream is high in sugar.

I always feel like there is a film that needs to be washed down. I've tried soft drinks, but for some reason it always burns and feels like it bubbles up in my mouth.
