It's surprising how many people across the world eat chicken's feet, a type of food that some people throw away because they think it is isn't edible or a tasty dish. The weirdness of it aside it might be worth a try considering how many people eat it across the world. Who knows, maybe it is the perfect snack to have with beer, judging by the picture it sure looks like that.
The feet are deep fried and if all the proper ingredients are used (sauces and spices) it can be a very tasty dish, the only drawback would be the bones which can get pretty annoying after awhile. Aside from chicken feet, duck feet can also be used. They are prepared with mustard and are served with vinegar, fresh green peppers, and crushed garlic. It is a very popular appetizer in China.
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.
