          i mean as if sparkling water also isnt 99% water 1% co2 and then trace amounts of minerals

            That 1%, much like the bougeoise, completely disrupts the harmony of H2O from it'd dominance over the flavor profile of the drink.

            LIBERATE H2O FROM THE CO2 SCUM!

        Sparkling water is bougie shit.

        Britta filtered tap water is the true elixir of the proletariat

            Oh I’m sorry, let me go buy a bunch of brand canned sparkling water over buying one water filter.

            Literally every lib I know can’t stop guzzling La Croix and chucking their damn cans everywhere. They spend more on that per month than I do on one Britta filter in 6 months.

              my take is that la croix isnt water, it's very lightly flavored soda from what i've heard. if you thing this thread is about la croix, lol leave american

                It’s literally sparkling water. It’s not a light flavored soda, wtf? No I think this thread is about dumb shit like sparkling water. Something you usually have to buy in a container in order to drink.

                It’s quite literally just as worthless as regular bottled water. Get a filter, drink tap and stop acting like your better than everyone else.

                Guess I don’t make enough money to understand this thread.

    I don't know. I just like regular water. I always thought sparkling water was a gimmick to sell us something that should be free.

      i mean they also sell normal water and tap water also comes at a price like electricity and heating

        Bottled water can be hundreds or thousands of times the price of tap water depending on where you live. Unless sparkling water goes for any cheaper, it's always going to be a bit of a ripoff (assuming the tap water in your area is safe to drink).

        I came to like sparkling water after staying with a host family in Germany for a little bit, but for me it's just a treat.

          i use a sparkling water dispenser outside my house that goes 20 liters for one euro, jsut cos normal tap water isnt that tasty at all and it's full of limestone that ruins glasses after a while

            Fair enough. I grew up in a rural area in Canada, so the wellwater there is what's most familiar to me.

        Yeah it's a substitute for water that tastes worse than water and isn't refreshing or thirst quenching

        It's completely useless and will be put against the wall

            Also you're right, we might be split on the issue of sparkling water, but we're una faccia una razza, and we should team up to defeat the real enemies: the burgers and the krauts.

                Una faccia una razza was originally invented by Italian fascists to invade Greece, but for many years now in Greece it is used semi ironically as an endearing term to describe closeness (mostly cultural) between Greeks and Italians.

                BTW some Greek people don't know where it comes from and some Italians don't know how Greeks use it so when Greek people bring it up the Italians just look at them weird and confused and then the Greeks also get confused and it becomes awkward.

    i dont hate sparkling water anymore but it still doesnt hit the same as good old regular water. if i was just exercising, i can chug a water and feel so refreshed. sparkling water does not do that.

      Add a lemon with it. Plain water is just 👌 No need to make my mouth feel like i just ate a pack of pop rocks.

        I used to do that with an old glass bottle I had. Pop a few slices of cucumber or lemon in there, so goddamn refreshing on a hot day.
