There's something about representing companies on your clothing or body that really weirds me out. I'm talking about when people buy shirts that say Coca-Cola on them. Doesn't it make more sense that Coca-Cola pays YOU to wear that shirt? You're basically paying them to advertise for them. Sometimes that makes sense when it's a smaller brand, or a lifestyle brand like Nike. Where it doesn't make sense: Walmart. America's biggest and most evil corporation.
The irony is that this tattoo probably cost more than any item at Walmart. We know for a fact that they didn't get this tattoo drawn at Walmart though, because it would have looked much worse. I don't know if Walmart even does tattoos, but I could totally see one in Nebraska doing it. Free tattoo when you refill your prescription at Walmart.
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.
