it's when you completely give up an addiction - side-effects can be sweating profusely, tremors, cold sweats, head-aches, flu-like symptoms

Cold Turkey = stopping (anything) right now!
Side Effects = ? Depends on what you are stopping/quitting.
Food = you may get hungry!
Alcohol = you may have jitters/seizures.
Smoking = you may gain weight
Side effects can usually always be handled. Quitting a negative habit, in the end, is the best idea for your health.

Cold turkey is stopping anything without working your way down just plain stopping. Side effects depend completely on what you're stopping.
