Redheaded people get a bit of a raw deal in life when it comes to people making jokes at their expense. It's been the case for centuries, and we doubt it's going to change any time soon. Music star Ed Sheeran is well aware that people mock him for being a 'ginger,' but he's happy to laugh it off. He even cast 'Harry Potter' star Rupert Grint in one of his videos once, because so many people get the two Brits mixed up. Perhaps next time he could use an old 'Rugrats' character instead?
'Rugrats' was a show that played a big part in the childhood of many people who'll be reading this - and some of us probably watched it long after we should really have grown out of it! Chucky Finster may not have been the main character, but the show wouldn't have been the same without him. We don't know what happened to Finster after he grew up. Perhaps he learned to play guitar, and started writing catchy but slightly sappy ballads?
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.
