This one is a total trip. Or should I say, a total strip? Do you remember the time Spiderman took on Big Dick Richie from Magic Mike? Well, it happened folks. In the Toby Mcguire 'Spiderman' (that was ten Spidermans ago, I think), Joe Manganiello played the role of Flash Thompson, Peter Parker's jock bully. That's back when bullies in movies were always huge white guys. To put it in perspective, the current Flash Thompson is played by Guatemalan actor Tony Revolori, and is a math geek.
Before Joe Manganiello was stripping alongside Channing Tatum, he was terrorizing Peter Parker in the school halls, but ultimately, like any good bully, he gets defeated. He's much younger, of course, but he definitely has the body of a future stripper. Not that I notice that sort of thing...
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.
