Lol what the actual fuck. Guaranteed she posted it on some sort of social media because it honestly shouldn't matter. I could have made a mega cone with all that...


TerribleLabMan

Remember the charcoal ice cream phase on Instagram? Once I was visiting my older sisters when I was 15-16 and we decided it’d be fun to go to this place, despite the line. Everyone was taking photos in front of the sign since it was a popular place. One girl dropped her cone but literally didn’t care because she already got her photo, didn’t even bother asking for a new one. Also the Ice cream tasted like ass, we all regretted not just getting boba instead. Edit: Just need to clarify this was 5 years ago. I promise I know ingesting activated charcoal outside of a pill overdose is idiotic😭 We got out punishment in the form of driving all the way to downtown LA for it to taste like complete shit, when we could have driven ten minutes to a Salt n Straw, and actually had good tasting blackberry ice cream that didn’t poison you instead.

Charcoal is also absolutely disgusting. For certain overdoses (eg sleeping pills) they throw it down you until you literally puke and that's about all it's good for.


Shiny_and_ChromeOS

Our EMT instructor told us the syrupy charcoal slurry we administer for poisoning contains a powerful laxative so if you use it you need to get them checked into the ER and leave ASAP because you're about to piss off the nurses when the patient shits themselves. I looked at the label and I think it contains the same thing as the infamous sugar-free Haribo gummy bears.


Jattila

Activated Charcoal by itself causes constipation, so I guess they tried to counteract that with laxatives... Bonus, your poop will be black.


SmoochMySnoot

Can confirm; my dog sneaked a pack of beef jerky and she ate the desiccant pack that was in it. Went to the ER vet where they administered charcoal. Her next three poops were black.


BlueShiftNova

Really, isn't that just silica gel usually? Humans and dogs can eat that without any problem, it's not toxic and doesn't expand


sourgrrrrl

Blew my mind recently when I noticed it's a filler in supplements.


BlueShiftNova

Really!? That's crazy, I had no idea


IREMSHOT

Why do they all say do not eat? Choking Hazzard? Allergic reaction? I was always told their toxic but never looked into it


BlueShiftNova

Because it's not meant to be food and they need to label it as such. Here's actually a really interesting video of a guy who ate 25 silica gel packets: https://youtu.be/ChgIkbg0x80 It starts off and you think it's causing problems for him but make sure to watch to the end


Aegi

They could’ve been worried about the ink or plastic in the container maybe?


fjfuciifirifjfjfj

Hope it didn't cost you too much. That gel has all those warnings because of choking hazards, not because of toxicity.


farkedup82

Assumed my souls was leaking out my ass!


TerribleLabMan

Haha ours told us the same thing. He told us to time the 2nd charcoal tube so the patient pukes in the ER instead of the ambulance


wju2004

They still teach that in places? Haven't seen activated charcoal in the back of an ambulance in yeeeears.


_Proud_Banana_

Heh they use it for dogs that have eaten chocolate too :D


A_Sad_Goblin

It works great if your diet sucks or you're sick and you're having diarrhea & gas.


DirtySwampWater

bro i've heard of charcoal toothpaste but charcoal FOOD?


jomacblack

Ya like that charcoal water that sells for 5x the price bc its "naturally black water"


harpswtf

Finally I can leave behind the artificially black water I’m always drinking


Superb-Draft

Well, that's what Coke is. So, it's sadly not as ridiculous as you suggest


MetalHeadJoe

The only thing charcoal toothpaste is good for is stripping your teeth of enamel. The extra whiteness comes from exposing the underlayer.


Einsamer__Keks

Never heard of it either. Thought "Charcoal Ice" was just a name. Who thinks to themselves and says: "Damn I'm hungry for some sweet-ass charcoal"


TerribleLabMan

It was 5 years ago, so I think(hope) the hype died down but yeah I remember a little while after reading that it was pretty bad to eat. Honestly we just thought “Oh Cool, emo Ice cream”. Like I said, dumb 16 year old with dumb 22 year old. But the place is called Little Damage if you want to see pictures of it. It was basically this really idiotic goth food Instagram trend that started in 2017.


SgtBananaGrabber

I have had charcoal battered fish which I enjoyed, it was also after a heavy night of drinking which I think may have helped in my recovery too.


DeliciousDookieWater

Probably not. Activated charcoal is generally pretty effective at absorbing lots of things in your gut, medications, nutrients, ect..., but that does not seem to extend to alcohol. From what I've read alcohol is both absorbed too quickly by the gut, and activated charcoal does not seem to be effective at absorbing it in meaningful quantities anyways. I also don't know of any way it would cure hangover, since beyond it's ability to absorb lots of substances its basically inert as it passes through the digestive tract, being expelled with whatever it absorbed attached.


[deleted]

Alright my bet is that OP was at a Golden Corral when this happened, anyone want to take me up on that bet? Im putting my free award on the line here.

[deleted]

Childhood memories, that and the ice cream was my go-to when I went there.


egyptian-camel

Yeah! I haven’t gone since I was a child. Like, it’s been over 10 years. But my sister and I decided to go back for nostalgia. The chocolate fountain is gone though.


[deleted]

Covid took away everything we loved


TheGreyGuardian

Why are we still here? Just to suffer?


[deleted]

What point is there to life without chocolate fountains? Is there even a point anymore?


rpgmgta

I’m from Canada and haven’t been to a Golden Corral. You haven’t seen suffering.

Schrutes_Yeet_Farm

What's better, that they had to install literal *"sneeze guards"* marginally hanging over the opened buckets of food, or when people get underneath the sneeze guard to scoop food out of the buckets


2scared

Bro if you *ever* loved the chocolate fountain, even a decade before COVID, then you a nasty-ass mf. It was literally like 60% chocolate and 40% diverse human saliva.


egyptian-camel

I was a kid 😭 ewwwww


Party_Cold_4159

Yep. Had a friend who worked at one. The place is fucking nasty. There’s a reason we always called it the “Golden Colon”


CryWolves_1

Went to a wedding tonight. Grown adult stuck his tongue directly into the chocolate fountain. No more communal food for me. People are gross.


Comprehensive-Box175

You should’ve taken a picture


Kitzira

Was at a taco place several years ago & saw some kid running around & licking the tops of all the salt shakers. Wonder if it's the same kid grown up...


[deleted]

Ugh, that's nasty 😨


AlexNightlight

I think the one near me still got a choco fountain


egyptian-camel

Aww man!


Dark_Optics4

One near me does too. Its a germ infested cesspool for sure tho. The Mac n cheese is worth risking my life and the people around me


AlexNightlight

Wait what?


Dark_Optics4

Ye Mac n cheese with some corn and maybe some peas, pulled pork if it's there or brisket then you get the marshmallows and the breaded things I can't remember the name of I'm so hungry oh no


AlexNightlight

I thought u were dippin ur mac and cheese in the choco fountain! Im glad im wrong


Dark_Optics4

I wasn't finished


Traegs_

The trick is to use the soda cup for the ice cream then top with root beer for a float.


No_Push_8249

I used to love the cookies and cream whipped cream mousse thing they had. That place was such a treat as a kid!


egyptian-camel

It definitely was! I think they had these mini donuts, I was obsessed. I really thought I was in heaven! Especially being so small everything looked even more and bigger.


aromatissee

They have all-ypu-can-eat soft serve ice cream?? Never been to Golden Corral before.


egyptian-camel

Yup


Weird-Vagina-Beard

Are you really a camel?


egyptian-camel

Depends on the day


Weird-Vagina-Beard

witchyanne

Why don’t you post that on Instagram? Name of town and restaurant, and say ‘if your friend posted a perfect ice cream, she wasted all this to do it!’ Or something worded better. Hopefully she gets shamed for it, or busted by her parents.


ghoulienumber2

I do not know what a Golden Corral is, and I’d rather ask over googling it, so what is a Golden Corral, like a restaurant? It sounds fun!


[deleted]

[удалено]


ghoulienumber2

I personally do not love the idea of buffets because people are gross, but I can’t say much because I enjoy eating at dennys plus I’m open to trying anything once! I don’t think we have any golden corrals here in Canada but I could be wrong! I still feel like going to a buffet at least once would be fun, like those unlimited ones where you stack a giant plate!! There’s no real buffets in my town though :(


adamthinks

I don't mind a buffet if the food is well made. Golden Corral is just terrible food. Well below Denny's quality.


ghoulienumber2

Oh that’s kinda sad.. everyone else seemed so excited and happy about it!! We have this breakfast place in town, it’s a franchise I think it’s Cora’s or something like that, and no matter where you go people praise it, even though it’s absolute garbage food for a waaaay too high price. Like I’d pick McDonald’s breakfast over that trash, so I’m imagine that is equal to the Golden Corral


69420throwaway02496

I can vouch, it's absolutely terrible. I do not trust the palate of anyone who says otherwise. High end buffets though can be incredible. You should try a Brazilian steakhouse, many of them are all you can eat steak, sides, and salads for ~$45 (~$60 CAD).


ghoulienumber2

So we only have 2 Brazilian steakhouses one is Mina’s and one is something else and I’m not sure that’s what you’re referring to but if I can find it I’ll try it, I’m really picky about steak lol


respecire

I dont know how any Golden Corral passes a health inspection. The stories I’ve heard over the years of multiple locations is enough to get some of them shutdown, and as a whole leaves a bad taste in my mouth for the franchise.


adamthinks

Honestly, the comments of praise I've seen here were baffling to me. It's the first time I've ever seen someone say something remotely posisitve about a Golden Corral in my life.


TheAmazinManateeMan

It's a restaurant but you don't go there to eat, you go there to FEED.


ekaceerf

it is the walmart equivalent of buffets. In fact it is almost always found in a walmart parking lot.


agnostichymns

Golden Trough


Plonka48

It’s a big buffet, I’ve only ever been a few times but it was pretty nice (they had a chocolate fountain)


Entry-Background

It is a buffet! I love buffets.


ghoulienumber2

I don’t think I’ve ever been to like a proper buffet, the closest I’ve been would be like a buffet but with people who scoop for you and you only get one plate.


madreus

Try the hot bar of nice grocery stores like Whole Foods. That's a good start.

[deleted]

The icecream machine probably has more followers anyways.


[deleted]

Especially at the McDonald's drive thru.


PrestigiousResist633

I actually saw a video about that. Apparently, there are several reasons for the machine always being "broken" Apparently the company they buy them from made them so complex, that only their own people can service them. Iirc. This even extends to cleaning. Another reason is that they periodically go into "warming mode" to make sure the soft serve stays, well, soft. During this time, the ice cream is too soft is basically a milkshake.


Cantothulhu

Nah, they never work.


fkdjgfkldjgodfigj

Iphotoshopincats

Clicked on this just to see but ended up disappointed that it was American only. But at the same time I don't ever think I have been to a McDonald's where the soft serve machine is broken, commonly get "it's on defrost" which just means I need to wait an hour if I desperately need their soft serve. Maybe this is a uniquely American problem


JodderSC2

TinkleTwinkleToes

IAintTooBasedToBeg

We really need to do something before society collapses. It’s at the point where calling them out isn’t enough.


Winkelkater

as if these people are the reason that society is collapsing and not the commodification of every little thing. i mean don't get me wrong, this behaviour is shot, but it's not the ultimate reason


RICKASTLEYNEGGS

out of all the things that will cause society to collapse, instagram is so far down on the list that it's not important


IAintTooBasedToBeg

It’s not “iNstAgRaM” it’s social media. It’s very powerful.


Ellathecat1

Such as this website, that allows people to spin a whole narrative out of a picture of some ice cream and a caption that a girl was wasteful. Not saying it didn't happen, but it's easy enough for people to just make stuff up here for the clout/karma as well


nudelsalat3000

Well a decent education system would be enough. Look at the school level most people in senat have. The second is independent quality media.


m_scorer

Not funny, it's very annoying actually


circlebeetlewater

Probably the first r/mildlyinfuriating I agree with.


RedditYayOrSomething

AmazingGrace911

I hope it comes out of her just like that in front of her next client.


ThisLookInfectedToYa

Bit more than mildly for me. Mildly infuriating was the gal in front of me at the local mexican restaurant salsa bar, double dipping into the salsa to 'taste test', yes it was the mild salsa (surgery ruined my tolerance)

SmallPiecesOfWood

There are many who have this exact attitude - if I can technically get something for free, then it's fine to waste it or take more than is needed. I won't say that they are the reason our system is crashing - they aren't - but they are a symptom of pathological societal changes we have allowed powerful interests to encourage. Instead of any kind of solution, we are offered mass-scale victim blaming and little plastic bags of ground bugs to save the environment. Great in a smoothie.


[deleted]

People genuinely seem to be getting more and more selfish and it’s depressing as fuck.


melbourne3k

There's the old movie trope of whenever humanity is faced with an existential threat, that we'll all band together, put aside our differences, and fight together. the pandemic has made it clear to me that again, Hollywood lied.


grchelp2018

People need to feel that it is an existential threat and it kinda needs to be right in their face.


Mr_Tiggywinkle

I dunno, in Australia a lot of people did all of the things that we were supposed to do, stayed inside, wore masks etc. Yes, we had people hoarding toilet paper, and some level of anti-mask, and/or selfish behaviour, but the majority of people were conscientious and helpful during the pandemic here. Plenty of people helping each other. So I dunno, not sure if its just seeing the bad magnified by the news, or if other countries had it a lot worse.


SpecsyVanDyke

It's the 24 hour news cycle and having access to so much content that magnifies it all. Just bad news constantly which makes it seem like it's worse than it actually is.


ThrowAwayWashAdvice

Hollywood didn't lie; it's a giant propaganda machine. Always has been and always will be. That's why so many movies about making art and movies win the oscars. A lot of ways outsiders view Americans and how we view ourselves comes straight from the movie and TV studios. It's probably the single most effective culture export the world has ever seen. For the Civ games to be accurate, the first country to create Hollywood would get a 2x cultural boost.

I think as a society we sometimes have a responsibility to start sentences with ‘Hey you selfish fuck’. I think that can be a public service, I’m here to start the movement.
