We're back to questions of gender again. Who knew that we would be talking about the hot-button topics of current societal debate in the middle of a light-hearted article about crazy people in Walmart? If this person wants to be referred to as a woman, then they have that right. Everyone is free to be whomever they wish to be, and we're not here to poke fun at them for their lifestyle choices.
Most people, however, don't feel the need to stick a label on their back to inform people of their gender. Because it's on his back, we're a little suspicious of whether he actually put it there himself. It's entirely possible that somewhere in this branch of Walmart is a mischievous child who thinks there's nothing funnier than sticking labels on people's backs when they're not looking. At least it doesn't say 'kick me.'
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.
