This movie is likely to mean absolutely everything to viewers of a certain age. If you grew up watching Mister Rogers, circle October 18th, 2019 in your calendar. You're going to want to see this.
The almost-too-good-to-be-true Fred Rogers is played in the film by Tom Hanks, which is an inspired choice. You may wonder how a movie about Mister Rogers could be made, and the answer lies in the story of a journalist assigned to do a piece on Mister Rogers, setting out with the cynical intent of exposing him as a hypocrite and a fraud. What he finds is a man who is every bit as warm and kind as his television persona, and the meeting will change his mindset, and his life, forever. This is the sort of movie that sets out to warm your heart and inject a bit of magic into your life, and all signs point to it achieving exactly 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.
