This is another one of those movies that came out while I was working at a movie theater yet I have no recollection that it ever existed. I don't know what it is about certain movies. You know what I think about when I think about the alamo? Old movies about it. It just doesn't excite me, and I'm going to go out on a limb and say that general audiences felt the same. The movie only made twenty two million dollars off of its one hundred and seven million dollar production cost.
The movie lost $120 million dollars, which is a worse loss than they suffered at the actual Alamo. Billy Bob Thornton is in it, and as interesting as he is to watch, I don't show up at the theater to see him as the star.
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.
