Another star from The Lion King that truly made the film great is Rowan Atkinson. Known for his more comedic roles, it was unusual to see him play Zazu the red-billed hornbill, Simba's uptight babysitter and Mufasa's most trusted assistant and confidante. He does certainly remain the butt of many jokes in the film, which we suppose is very much the way things go in some other Atkinson classics.
Atkinson is best-known for British television classics, Blackadder and Mr. Bean. He was also a scene stealer in one of the best films of the '90s, Four Weddings and a Funeral, where he plays a clumsy vicar. Johnny English and Love Actually are two of his other blockbuster roles. Constantly listed as one of the funniest British actors of all time, Atkinson genuinely deserves the praise.
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.
