This marketing tactic should be illegal. It's not even good because no one is going to be happy when they get there. Sure, getting people in the door is a win, but when they hate you it doesn't work as well. Then again, we all know that there's no such thing as free beer. What's bizarre is that you're more likely to get free beer if you're rich and can already afford beer. That's true of everything. Rich people get shit for free all the time.
Remember when punk bands would name themselves things like Free Beer and Nude Girls? That way no one could look them up. That's how anti-establishment they were. There's something cool to that, but by something I mean like 10%. It's 90% stupid. Help people listen to your music, ya dopes.
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.
