We can just imagine your thought process as you started scouring this retro gas station for clues. So many signs, so many colors, so much distraction. You probably also checked out the lady in the background to see if any of the differences were tucked away in the corner. Let's start with the hardest one for a change. Did you pick the 'one way' sign in the first image that changes to 'one day' in the second one?
If you caught the 'one way' difference you probably got the rest of them. The first gas pump has a different brand in each image. The 'G-A-S' sign hanging above the pumps changes to 'G-S-S' in the second image. Last but not least, the brands on the last pump switch around, too. Dinoco Gasoline becomes Tulsa Tea.
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.
