Since when do people eat activated charcoal? Am I missing something here?

It's frequently used to make food appear black. It has some legitimate uses but food shouldn't be one of them.

Yet another dumb trend that completely passed me by.

That article needs a rigourous editing from someone that doesn't think crystals can purge toxins.

Crystals can remove ingested toxins from the body if you shoot them out a cannon at someone and blast their stomach out.

Why burn your food for that harsh crunchy texture? Just eat activated charcoal instead, no need to spend all that time and money burning food, just pure taste sensation!

Years ago it was a trend to put activated charcoal in stuff like toothpaste and milk based coffee drinks.

[-] Voyajer@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Still is for toothpaste at least

Do you guys not take it against gas? That's a common item in medicine cabinets where I am.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I use simethicone for gas.
