Skip: Ford v. Ferrari

Skip: Ford v. Ferrari

This film is not, as the title might suggest, a feature length adaptation of 'Top Gear'. It's a biographical drama, telling the real-life story of the upstart Ford motor racing team attempting to challenge the dominance of Ferrari in the world of Le Mans endurance racing during the 1960s.

The producers were presumably inspired by the success of 2014's 'Rush' at the box office, which was also a biography from the motor racing world. Both Christian Bale and Matt Damon are in leading roles, which is as close as you'll get to a guarantee of quality; no matter what's in the script, the two performers will make you care about it. We won't spoil it for you, but we can say that the true events the film is based on are inspiring and exciting, so as long as the film does the story justice it should be excellent. You can start your engines on June 28th.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
