Two packets of salty crisps. (Do Americans call crisps "chips"? I refer to the thin planar slices of potato, not the thicker cuboid slices of potatoes also know as "fries".)

Are you sure it was the salt and not the potato?

No. And of course I have exactly one data point for all of this. EDIT: As in one person (me) rather than as in one instance of curing headaches. I did reliably cure headaches this way.
