22. Urban Camouflage

We're going to go out on a limb here, and say that this is a picture of a couple, and they've both decided that their best look for going to the store is camouflage. Camouflage for him, and camouflage for her. Walmart does sometimes feel like a warzone, and it's probably quite helpful if you're able to blend into a background for a while, waiting to emerge when things calm down.

Of course, if you're both wearing camouflage, there's a risk that you won't be able to see each other. That's probably why they've both gone for matching white tops to make themselves stand out - thus nullifying the effect of the camouflage. If they weren't a couple when the picture was taken, by the way, we bet they are now. If you saw someone dressed exactly like you, you'd have to talk to them. At least you know you have something in common right from the start.

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.
