So it looks like Kanye West had been watching some cooking shows before going out to eat and tweeting about it. We all do things like this where we hear some expert talk about something on TV so we just regurgitate it to all our friends. "I'll have a gin and soda. You know they say gin is the worst alcohol for your brain." I don't know why we act like it's our own information, as if it's normal to have encyclopedic knowledge of everything inherently burnt into our brain. Or maybe this is just some pure Kanye magic.
I'm going to order my salmon like this the next time I go out. Not only will I ask for it medium, I'll say the full thing. "I'll have the salmon, medium instead of medium hell. I don't want to ruin the magic." I'd say it with a little wink too.
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.
