Tennessee is all about the music, baby. Not just the Nashville country scene, but the state as a whole has produced great music. Do I need to say anything more than Elvis Presley to get my point across? And we all know that there's only one thing that makes music better: alcohol. That's why coffee shop open mics are horrible, but bar bands are great. The quality of music is the same. It's only the experience that changed.
You can't blame Tennessee for having the adults excessive drinking at 11.2%. When chowing down on some Nashville hot chicken you want to chug down a beer, not a glass of cold milk. If you see someone at a bar drinking milk, you need to leave that bar. Statistics : Adults drinking excessively: 11.2% - Alcohol-related driving deaths: 28.0% (11th lowest) - Adults in fair or poor health: 19.9% (9th highest) - Drunkest metro area: Nashville-Davidson-Murfreesboro-Franklin
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.
