why not just leave the cap off and let it go flat?

>>14049658
The only people I know who dislike carbonation are under 10 years old

>>14049658
Literally me

Sparkling water is superior to regular water in every way.

enjoy your teeth and guts getting eroded by carbonic acid.

who the fuck drinks water when diet soda exists?

>>14049669
he's Am*rican and therefore incapable of thinking critically

>>14049658
I put ice in beer

>>14049851
American

>>14049867
Imagine enjoying life

I'm only kidding, of course. Cobra Tate is a tremendous King-Kong gorilla level faglord, and he pronounces the word "water" like an autistic alien.

I love sparkling water, but it's not a regular thing to drink here in the 'States.

>>14049871
People on water fasts, sparkling water is literally the only thing with taste you can consume, it's like soda after a couple of weeks of just normal water

>>14049904
La Croix is one of the most popular drinks around. Then there's bubly and all the old people drink h2oh!

>>14049658
>Wife hates soda water
>I love it
>Pour a glass and sit it on the coffee table
>Wait until all bubbles are gone
>Wife asks if she can have some of my water
>"Go ahead honey"

>>14050321
This is abusive

>>14049877
obses

>>14049904
It’s what any white person with any self respect drinks.
Not La Croix however, Vintage is the choice if your parents raised you right

>>14050360
I usually just drink Topo Chico when I can find it.

>>14050321

>>14049658
>euro water systems so shit they have to drink bottled carbonated water

>>14050414
yeah mine comes carbonated straight out of the tap

>>14050321
wtf gramps she could choke on it!

>>14050414
europe has way cleaner water then the states

Sparkling water is fucking gross. Just give me a nice, cold, tall glass of water with ice.

>>14049658
Agua...

Why drink diet soda when Michelob Ultra exists?

>>14050636
He can lose weight but tomorrow you'll still be obsessed.

>>14050377
Trendy bullshit

I've been thinking ordering a case of Perrier lately since it's about the equivalent of $5 USD for a 330ml bottle here. Is it any good? Anyone ever tried it?

>>14049658
Sparkling water with a heavy carbonation is fantastic.

I love this stuff butt I can never find it consistently near me.

>not making your own carbonated water with dry ice and tap water

Go be troglodytes somewhere else

Why do Americans not drink tap water in their homes, but they willingly drink it at restaurants?

>>14049658
I agree warm sparkling water is pretty gross.

>>14051309

The average tap water in the US is good enough that it tastes fine when chilled.

>>14051309
I drink tap water all the time.

>>14049669
it would evaporate

>>14049669
The carbonic acid produced leaves a slightly sour taste to the water that is unpleasant, regardless of whether or not it has gone flat

>>14051416
I always thought it was the salt or minerals in the water, but this kind of makes more sense

>>14051309
Why do non-Americans assume so much about us? Don't you know it makes an ass out of u and me?

>>14051416
Carbonic acid is literally just a solution of carbon dioxide in water. It's a scientific colloquialism, i.e. it doesn't exist. The sour taste you're talking about isn't an actual flavor, it's a sensation that you're mistaking for a flavor. I'd call you a tastelet, but I'm a good Christian man and I love you, anon.

he's not dying of thirst

>>14051551
He's clearly walking towards the river than than away from, ain't nothing but desert to the West

>>14049867
nigga thats not how stomach acid works
i bet you think water with meme pH values actually do jack shit

>>14049827
If you're a stupid ass worthless nigger retarded then maybe yeah

>>14049901
Welcome to /ck/. No spoilers.

Just butt chug it

>>14049658
>sparkling water
>not just drinking beer all day

Most sparkling waters and "naturally carbonated" spring waters taste like shit. I dont know how anybody can enjoy the taste of it. Even when its not carbonated it just has a bad taste.

Maybe its an aquired taste you get when you grow up with it? To me it tastes like dirty water.

>>14051586
it won't fuck up your stomach but it will fuck up your teeth

>>14049658
San Pel is the ultimate water experience

>>14052608
>>14049867
Carbonated water is no more dangerous for your teeth than still water.

>>14051538
very wrong

>>14051309
>Why do Americans not drink tap water in their homes
I do tho? Also most people don't really drink the water at restaurants in my experience either, waiting for their teas/sodas/juices/etc instead.

>>14049697
Anything fizzy burns my throat and is almost undrinkable, fizzy alcohol makes me quasi-puke like 20 seconds after drinking, which is weird cos I could eat a habanero chilli and down half a bottle of wine in one go without even thinking.

>>14051316
Depends on what state, area you are. Las Vegas tap water for example tastes like dirt.

>>14052669

San Pelligrino is what you drink if you want water that tastes like somebody has filtered it with a sour pair of gym socks.

>>14049871
who the fuck drinks "diet" soda when regular soda exists? fatty?

>>14049658
I like sparkling juice. Sparkling water is okay as long as it's got not added minerals.

>>14053079
Well, in any event once sparkling water goes flat it doesn't have any CO2 left in it, so therefore nothing to taste. And carbonic acid IS a solution of carbon dioxide in water, so I may be wrong, but I'm not very wrong.

>>14054074
People who don't want to become fat. No seriously, regular soda is THE cause of the obesity pandemic. Nothing else we eat or drink comes close to the damage regular soda causes. Don' t reply to me.

>>14049871
Frequent aspartame consumption leads to tons of health problems.

for me its 60% perrier mixed with some fruit juice

>>14049658
Its fine. Dont be a fag.

>>14049658
Good for losing weight. Helped me cut out soda

>>14051538
You are a fucking stupid head. Carbonic acid does exist and it is the result of reaction between carbon dioxide and water. The reaction is not very productive and, as such, the carbonic acid readily pops apart back into carbon dioxide and water when held under reduced (I.e. atmospheric pressure)- this is why soda loses its carbonation. Same process that occurs in the blood, buddy- basic chemistry.

here in the northeast polar seltzer is very popular

>>14049871
Do people seriously believe diet soda is even remotely healthy? Just because it has no sugar doesn't mean a bunch of nasty shit isn't added to it.

>>14050360
>a real palate
stay based.

>>14051309
I wouldn't drink tap water either if it was pumped with fluoride and estrogen

>he doesn't drink room temperature still water
Literally the best way to drink water, chilled is OK but only for sips. The carbonated flavored waters are pretty ok too but seltzer and sparkling water taste like fucking TV static. Shit is terrible.

>>14049885
Why is this?

>>14049658
>Thoughts?
If you are looking for water that close to one of the great pyramids then you're approximately 5 minutes away from an assortment of tourist vendors offering liquids of several kinds.

>>14049877
do american realy

>>14059701
carbonic acid maybe
leaves that tangy taste blech

>>14051309
Depending on the location I wouldn't drink tap water. I live in NJ and the tap water here is fucking disgusting. NY tap water though is actually really good.

>>14051265
Perrier is owned by Nestlé so fuck that shit

>>14057050
>Let's just cut to the chase and make the can full of sugar we say is juice carbonated.

>>14057236
NH here can confirm, we are blessed and polar is king

>>14052669
San Pelligrino is owned by Nestlé so fuck that shit

>>14049658
Tastes like acid unless it's sweetened, pic related is my drug of choice

>>14049658
I DRINK COCONUT LA CROIX AND NOTHING ELSE ALL DAY EVERY DAY

>>14061094
