Wedding photography, like the ceremonies themselves, is getting more and more creative by the day. Gone are the times when it was enough to stroll down the aisle in double denim and slip a crackerjack ring on their finger. Now you have to have a dozen trumpeters, canapés made from gold-encrusted dodo meat, and a twerking bear to get your wedding even close to being memorable.
This wedding will certainly be one for the archives. The idea is sane enough - eloping with your husband on a horse - even if the photography tries way too hard. Really, did no-one realize that the shot made her look like a centaur? What happened next, though, was the best part. The horse picked up the pace, and she slid right off the back of it and crashed to the ground. Not a tragedy by any stretch of the imagination, but definitely unforgettable.
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.
