Yes, we know, we've covered the basics of this. The makeup was terrible. The suit was heavy. The part was re-cast. He was either getting sprayed with oil or melted chocolate depending on what day it was. But even that wasn't the sum total of the misery that our poor Tin Man had whilst making this movie.
The costume department decided that the best way to make the Tin Man look stiff was for his costume to actually be stiff. This was a department that didn't seem to prioritize the comfort of their performers. The outfit was in fact so stiff that Haley couldn't bend or sit down, so over the course of the entire twelve-hour day that he was wearing it, the only way he could take any weight off his feet was to lean against something for a while.
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.
