This might be the biggest hit with children that we see in 2019. Prepare for a cuteness overload as the popular range of plush toys, named 'UglyDolls' get their own movie. If you have little ones of your own, expect them to pester you into taking them to see it when it comes out on May 10th!
The film takes the format of a jukebox musical, with 'American Idol' winner Kelly Clarkson lending her singing voice to the lead character, and Pitbull, Nick Jonas, Charlie XCX and several more names from the world of music making contributions, too. When they're not singing, the film will highlight the themes of confidence and identity, with the overall message being the importance of being comfortable in your own skin. We expect this one to sell a lot of tickets at the cinema, and even more dolls in toy shops!
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.
