We're going to be as delicate as we can while we're talking about "American Pie", because it's one of the funniest films ever made, but there's some really gross moments in there and we shouldn't be talking about them in public. If you've seen the film, you remember this scene in Stifler's bedroom. You know what's in the cup, right? Good. Let's say no more about it.
Only we have to, because it's not the same cup anymore. When we first see it, it has a very clear blue rim. It gets put down, it gets picked back up, and now it's clear plastic. So, either there were two drinks in the room, and Stifler didn't actually drink what we all thought he drank, or somebody couldn't even be bothered to make sure they got a set of matching cups to shoot the movie with.
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.
