This is absolutely hilarious to me. We daydream so much about what we want that we don't realize that those things won't change our situation. I've spent countless hours stuck in traffic fantasizing about being in a new, expensive car. The thing is that even if I had that car I'd still be in traffic. Even if I wasn't in traffic, I'd still be the same guy with the same anxieties. It would be better to daydream about how we can better our mindset, but where's the fun in that?
I will take this cartoon to task by saying that when you go from a car that has no stereo or AC, to one that has those things, then these kinds of fantasies are completely legitimate. Yes, AC and a radio will make your ride in traffic better, however, if you're riding around in a 2017 Camry wishing for a sports car, just stop. You've already got it all, my man.
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.
