Let's look at some more fan art, because sometimes fans have better ideas than the people behind the comics! In this case, we have Blue Beetle and Booster Gold re-imagined as women. You get bonus points if you recognized the character names straight away, but if you didn't, they're lower-ranking members of the Justice League (seriously, there are more superheroes than there are days of the year. It's a wonder anyone ever commits a crime at all).
This fan art is the work of Maya Nord, who places her creations on an alternative world where all the men are women, and all the women are men. Booster's thigh-high boots are totally in keeping with the male version's flirtatious character, and when it comes to Blue Beetle, we don't think there are enough superheroes out there wearing cute shorts. We accept these female alternates into our head canon.
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.
