Have you ever waded into a debate full of younger people online, pretending to understand what they're talking about and attempting to use the same language they do? If so, you may have found yourself confronted by the 'How Do You Do, Fellow Kids?' meme, which pokes fun at either those who refuse to grow up, or those who have exposed themselves as being hopelessly out of touch with their juniors.
The actor inhabiting the role in the meme is instantly recognizable to anybody who knows him - it's Steve Buscemi. He's such a big star that listing all of his major roles would take us the rest of the space we have, but 'Reservoir Dogs,' 'Con Air,' 'Armageddon,' and 'Ghost World,' are just some of the bigger hits. The meme comes from his appearance on the TV show '30 Rock,' in which he was parodying '21 Jump Street.'
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.
