We're not a serious website. We're here for the good times, and that's it. So we're not going to discuss the relevance, or effectiveness, of the United Nations as a major geopolitical actor. But you do have to admit, no matter what you think about the organization this is a pretty funny bit of satire. A very unfortunate, very well timed, piece of satire.
There is one other thing. If you think about it long enough, you realize who's actually taken this snap. The presence of peacekeepers means that whoever's taking these pictures is in a warzone, which in turn means that they're more likely than not a wartime photojournalist. Who knew they had a funny side? Who knew that war wasn't such a serious business after all?
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.
