If we told you that Will Ferrell didn't show any of his natural comedic talent to any of his peers during his time at the University of California, you'd probably be disappointed. Fortunately, we don't have to tell you that. Apparently, Ferrell's pranks during his student years are the stuff of legend. A favorite trick of his was to dress up as a janitor and wander into his friends' classes. He was also fond of streaking, along with the rest of his Delta Tau Delta frat brothers.
When he wasn't getting himself and everybody else around him into trouble, Ferrell was studying for a qualification in sports broadcasting. He followed through by taking an internship at a local television station, where he worked in the sports department, but didn't enjoy it. Regardless of that, the experience probably served him very well for his future role in 'Anchorman'.
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.
