14. Candy Diamonds are Forever

Ring Pops seems like a good idea. Who wants to hold a lollipop when they could free up their hand by making the lollipop into a ring? Here's the thing. Your hand freely dangles around, which makes your ring pop touch everything around you on accident. Soon you have hairs and dust all over it. Plus the saliva starts to drip and coat your hand, making it sticky. Who likes to be sticky? You don't see any of those problems with a regular lollipop. Don't broke what isn't fixed.

That being said, as a 90s kid, you still couldn't resist buying one. For all its problems, the Ring Pop is the most fun way to eat a sucker, if only for the brief moment when you first put it on and it looks like you have a huge, tacky diamond.

Did You Know...

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.
