It's got to be a lot of pressure to be on that Atlanta Falcons roster and perform while one of the most famous actors of all time is cheering you on from the sidelines. That's right, Samuel L. Jackson is a die-hard Atlanta Falcons fan and isn't afraid to show it. Despite being born in Washington DC, Samuel L. Jackson most likely found his love for the Falcons while attending Morehouse College in Georgia as a youth.
Also, it's hard to believe that someone with the work ethic and who's been in at least 125 movies (and counting) would even have time to participate in anything as trivial as sports fandom but, yet, Sam Jack has proven that he's capable of even being present for his team when the season is in full effect. However, we can only imagine Samuel L. Jackson staring at his television screen in disgust a la his Pulp Fiction after the team's Super Bowl loss in 2017 against the New England Patriots.
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.
