Pete Wentz might be much, much better known as a musician than he is as an actor, but he has a few acting credits to his name, and owns his own movie production company. In our eyes, that's enough to gain him credit! If you liked your music with a harder edge during the early part of the 21st century, you probably spent a few years rocking out to Fall Out Boy, Wentz's band. Their biggest hit was 'Sugar, We're Going Down.' which we're about to ruin for you. Wentz only wrote part of that song - the rest was written by his father, who's an attorney. Not so cool now, is it?
In truth, Wentz does almost all the work in Fall Out Boy. He plays bass, he performs all the backing vocals, and he also writes the words (when his pops isn't helping him out). All in all, he plays a big part, but he isn't a big man. His full clearance is 5 feet and 6 inches above ground level. We imagine he got teased at school about that - but it just gave him more ammunition to write emo songs about.
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.
