Jim Carrey's dislike of the part he played in 'Kick Ass 2' is all down to circumstance. Like the original movie, this sequel is a blend of ultra-violence and dark humor, and Carrey was reported to have had a blast while making it. After it was made, though, he was reluctant to take part in promoting the film. Something terrible had happened in the real world, and it made Carrey think about the responsibility he has as an entertainer.
Just as filming on the movie was coming to an end, the tragic mass shooting at Sandy Hook occurred, and Carrey stopped to think about the effect that violence in films may have on the people who watch them. He tweeted his reasoning for withdrawing his support from the film, stating that the level of violence it displayed wasn't appropriate given what had happened. He hasn't appeared in a violent role ever since.
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.
