If you're familiar with Wendy's Twitter account then you already know that Wendy's has no chill. They talk smack to people, call people out, start trouble - all because they know their burgers are so bomb that you'll stuff your faces with double stacks no matter what they say. In some ways, Wendy's is the last honest voice in America. Wendy's for president?
In this case, Wendy's was just being petty. A twitter user named Erik tried to claim he got a Wendy's tattoo on his calf, but they shoot him down. When will people learn to never use the first Google image search? This guy dodged a bullet by not actually getting that horrible tattoo, but that still means that somebody got that tattoo. Ladies, before you settle down with a guy, check his calf. Make sure he doesn't have this on it.
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.
