People get very passionate about what they eat. Not only that. They get passionate about what others eat as well. There's a healthy group of people who seem to hate the fast food industry, and they'll stop at no end to expose the mighty Burger Kings of the world. In what can be assumed was a move of pure desperation, these fast food truthers were caught in a lie meant to push their agenda.
We all can assume that there is something up with chicken nuggets. Something can't be that perfect and delicious without having some deep dark secrets. That's why this Tumblr post seems like it could likely be true. Good thing a Teletubbies fan was quick to point out this slimeball lie. That pink slime isn't chicken nuggets! It's Tubby Custard! I'm glad to know the truth but now I'm hungry for some Tubby custard.
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.
