I'm no expert on a lot of things, as you have seen by how I handle most subject matter in this article, and the British pound is no exception. I'm no expert on foreign currency in general, unless you count arcade tokens as foreign currency. The exchange rate on them is pretty easy. One quarter of US currency equals one token. That never changes, thankful. Even with my lack of foreign currency knowledge, this doesn't seem right. Math has taught me that half of anything is always... half. Not only is this not half, it's more than the original value. Any mathematician could see the problem here.
British chocolate is better than American chocolate though, so maybe it's still worth it. I don't like it on principle, but I'll gladly pay more for better chocolate.
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.
