You can probably guess from the title alone that this February 15th release is a romantic comedy. This isn't your standard offering within that genre, though. Rebel Wilson takes the lead role opposite Liam Hemsworth in a movie that owes more than a little to 'The Truman Show'.
The premise of 'The Truman Show' is that Jim Carrey's character came to realize that he was the only real individual in a world full of actors and stories, all playing out to the audience of a TV show of which he was the star. In 'Isn't It Romantic', Wilson slowly comes to realize that she's been trapped inside the plot of a cliched romantic comedy and must work out how to break the rules to free herself. It's a satire of the genre which promises plenty of good humor and knowing winks to the audience. That should mean that it's a good watch.
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.
