The concept of being 'friend zoned' is very well known online, even though there are some who feel that it doesn't exist, and it's just a fairly sexist way of criticizing the choices that women and girls make when they're deciding how to date. The unofficial face of the friend zone is 'Friendzone Johnny,' who achieved his internet fame in 2012, turning up at his friend Liz's house at midnight to make sure he was the first to wish her a happy birthday.
Liz was delighted with the candy and flowers, and uploaded a picture of her surprise visitor. A few hours later, the whole world is laughing at him. Johnny - real name Johnny Solis - insists that he was only being friendly, but based on the newer picture to the right, we're not completely sold. That's a guy who thinks he's smoother than your average.
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.
