Before Brendan Fraser was a big box office name, he was a caveman who'd been frozen in a block of ice and suspended in time in "Encino Man". Two geeky teenagers find him and thaw him out, and hilarity ensues. It's also another film that has magic cars. Ever seen a circus show where more clowns come out of a car than could ever have been in it to begin with? We think that's what's going on here.
Fraser's character is taking a driving test - badly - when Sean Astin takes a running jump and enters the car through the back window, diving headlong onto the seats. When we cut to a reaction shot from inside the car, the man behind Fraser clearly isn't Astin. Is Astin's character Dave on the floor of the car now? If so, who's the second guy who's jumped in through the window?
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.
