It is a well-known fact that people want to imitate other, more successful people. One such guy was this anonymous fellow, who wanted to be funny and posted a brief "conversation" he had with his hairdresser. The alleged chat went like this "Hairdresser: you're very handsome - don't let anyone tell you any different." To that, the guy in the above screenshot replied, "they don't haha." Basically, they had some good banter over how good his style is.
The problem with that conversation is that it never happened. The guy saw it from an online meme featured the man behind Iron Man - Robert Downey Jr. You can see in the above screenshot how the meme has the exact same words. What is even more interesting is that Robert Downey Jr. never even had this conversation in the first place - it was just a simple meme someone made up and posted on online forums and probably Reddit as well.
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.
