There was a famous song in the charts a few years ago that went by the title 'Acceptable In The 80s.' That's the exact phrase we'd use to describe the suit that Hollywood legend Brad Pitt is wearing in this picture. You might turn your nose up at it now, but back then it would have been considered the ultimate in cool, and you'd have considered him just as attractive as everybody does today!
We admit that if you're planning your prom night right now, you'd probably avoid wearing a jacket that clashes with your trousers. This was the time of 'Miami Vice,' though, and that's what went on all the time. This look is difficult to explain to those who didn't live through the era, but please take our word for it that Pitt was the man back then, and is still the man in the here and now!
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.
