"You know nothing, Jon Snow" is a phrase that must make Darren Criss's teeth grind together whenever people say it to him. As an actor, he'd probably love to have a prominent role in the smash hit TV show 'Game of Thrones'. He isn't Jon Snow, though. Kit Harrington is. That means Criss routinely has to disappoint people in the street who think they've chanced across a photo opportunity with the true heir to the Iron Throne.
Criss is best known for his time in 'Glee', and it amuses us to think of Harrington in Glee playing his 'Game of Thrones' character. It would have put a different perspective on the show, for sure. We wonder if anybody ever stops Harrington in the street and asks him to launch into a musical number? We'd pay to see that.
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.
