This is one of the most notorious cases of a kiss being refused in the history of Hollywood. Julia Roberts and Nick Nolte were cast as a pair of star-crossed lovers in 'I Love Trouble,' but the only thing they were crossing on set was swords. They got off on a bad foot on day one, and their relationship deteriorated from there. In the years since, Nolte has said that Roberts is 'not a nice person,' whereas she describes him as 'completely disgusting.'
Given that the two lead actors in the film openly hated each other, the question of persuading them to kiss wasn't an easy one to solve. Eventually, they did - in the most limp, awkward, and unconvincing way imaginable. The scene, like the film, was a complete flop. You can't make a romantic drama when there's palpably no romance between the two people who are supposed to be in love.
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.
