20. Monster Trucks

20. Monster Trucks

I would have loved 'Monster Trucks' when I was a kid. I probably would have begged my mom and dad to talk me to see it, but that was back when you could take a family of four to the movies and get snacks for under twenty dollars. Now one ticket is twenty dollars, so if you want to take your child to see a movie like 'Monster Trucks' you need to stop at the bank first and get a loan.

'Monster Trucks' is a paint-by-numbers type of movie, but who cares? You know what you're getting when you walk in to see 'Monster Trucks.' The movie cost over one hundred and twenty five million dollars but only took in thirty three million. It's too bad too. It means it'll be harder to make the next great monster truck movie.

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.
