1. The Not So Great Gatsby

1. The Not So Great Gatsby

Most of the time if someone talks 'ish on what someone else does or doesn't read, that person doesn't even read anything themselves. I can't tell you how many times I've been given guff for reading 'The Hunger Games' by someone who hasn't picked up a book since Bush was president. 00s Bush or 80s Bush. That's why when one keyboard cowboy thought he could crap on Great Gatsby readers, another Facebooker laid the perfect trap.

The post attempts to knock down those who say they have read Great Gatsby since it's a high school requirement and shouldn't be a big deal. That's' when a user replies with what initially seems like a standard comeback, but it puts the Great Gatsby hater on the defensive nonetheless. Then it's revealed that that the reply was a quote from the book. Not only that. It's the very first line. Check-mate. Gatsby Hater reveals he has never read the book, leaving him to question all his life choices that have led to that moment.

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.
