If there's one color which we associate with prisoners, it's orange. Orange is the color of prison jumpsuits, and the whole reason that the television show 'Orange is the New Black' goes by that name. You can wear orange as part of an outfit and not have everybody think you're a jailbird, but if you also decide to have the word 'guilty' printed across your chest, you're just asking for trouble.
Just wearing the shirt wasn't enough for this man though - he decided to complete the 'guilty' look by actually getting himself arrested - the picture is his mugshot! It's not a good look to be charged with a criminal offense when you're wearing clothes which suggest you're a criminal. This can't have been fun for his lawyer to look at. Maybe try a different shirt that says 'innocent' for the trial?
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.
