John Travolta's career was made by playing Danny in 'Grease' - an entire generation fell in love with his song and dance act, and he was instantly one of the hottest stars in Hollywood. If you've seen 'Grease' - which we imagine is all of you - then you'll know it's about love, dancing, and teen culture in the 1950s. If there was anybody who should have known all about that it was Henry Winkler, who'd essentially been playing Danny 'Grease' had even been written with his role as Fonzie on 'Happy Days.'
The problem with casting Winkler as Danny was that it was too obvious, and Winkler knew it. He felt that if he went straight from 'Happy Days' to 'Grease,' then he'd have been typecast for the rest of his life, and would never be offered any parts outside of '50s rogue'. As his career trajectory turned out, he needn't have worried - he was never offered very many major roles after 'Happy Days' anyway. Had he known in advance that his career had already peaked, he'd probably have taken 'Grease' in a heartbeat.
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.
