You know what's strange? Matt Damon has been in movies since before he was Bourne. Boom! That's a slam dunk. I should get paid extra for that joke. Let's not get sidetracked though. His first acting credit was back in 1988 where he had a small role as a character named Steamer in 'Mystic Pizza.' Luckily the movie doesn't take place in Cleveland or else his nickname would be Cleveland Steamer, and nobody wants that.
He has a total baby face in this movie, and is oddly a dead ringer for actor Jesse Plemons (an adult man). As an added bit of trivia, one of Jesse Plemons nicknames is "Fat Damon," which is one of the best things I've ever heard. Save that one for the next cocktail party you're at. Just don't steal my Matt Damon/Bourne joke. That one's mine!
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.
