13. Wonders of the Universe

I bet people really popped off when Kanye tweeted this. What's the point of calling out the word "bitch" when you use the word so profusely? I'm not saying I have an issue with it, even though there's a legitimate discussion around the word. I'm just saying, why would someone knock something that they actively do. Case and point, "I made that bitch famous." Let me tell you why. It's because he's talking about the time and the culture.

When Kanye West says that Stevie Wonder never had to use the word bitch, he's not talking about Stevie Wonder's innate abilities (although Stevie Wonder is fantastic). He's talking about the current time and culture of black artists versus when Stevie Wonder was at his height. At least that's what I think he means... who really knows.

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.
