Prom is a time to finally work up the courage to ask that certain someone to dance, or to even proclaim your love. I bet a lot of interesting stuff is caught in the background of prom photos. I'm talking about things like couples fighting, or longing looks like we see in this picture. The kid in the background definitely wants to ask one of these girls (or both) to dance. He's got the roses ready and everything. I've been that guy before. He's definitely having a mild heart attack in this photo.
I'd love to be able to track down this kid (who is probably an adult by now) and see how it all worked out that night. The worst fate is if he never took his shot. I don't regret ever being rejected, but I regret not taking my shot.
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.
