Do you like sparkling water?

>> No.18255840

Yes but LaCroix is crazy expensive here so I buy Bubly. The pineapple and blackberry flavours are fucking great.

for me its polar seltzer

I really don't like it and I have a feeling the only reason it's popular is because they make for good mixers. What I can't believe is that the soda aisle now has a whole side dedicated to seltzers.

What exactly is "regular water" here? Bottled? From tap? Also, the average person is not particularly wise.

I drink bottled and sparkling water because you can barely shower in the local tap water. I often buy larger quantities of water, the 5 gallons, to cook pasta and rice. America's infrastructure is ass and don't let my fellow countrymen lie to you about it.

I do. I just like plain carbonated water. Maybe lacroix lemon if I feel like it. I've started drinking it to drink less beer. Its cheaper and doesn't get me drunk. I'm not an alcoholic or anything, just trying to be a little healthier.

yes and no. yes in that i just like the mouth-feel of drinking carbonated stuff, and no in that the taste is so light and unsatisfactory you could've just gotten a fuller soda instead. i'm thinking next time i go out shopping, i'd get seltzer water and play around with extracts like vanillia or some shit

I don't drink it as much anymore (went back to sodas unfortunately), but I used to drink it all the time. Now I just buy generic brand watermelon seltzer as a mixer.
Aha was my favorite. This was my favorite but they stopped making it right after I bought my first pack of it. It sounds horrendous, but the coffee tasted more like chocolate and it blended really well with the cherry. Once that was gone, I kept buying strawberry/kiwi, watermelon/lime and lemon/green tea.
Bubbly is good but their raspberry turned me away from them. Way too sulfur-y. Orange was really good though, almost tasted like an orange soda.
I only ever tried Limonchello from LC and I liked it a lot.

Waterloo and Zevia are my go to. That ginger root beer zevia is GOAT. I used to work at a grocery store and showed one of my coworkers the ginger root beer flavor and he bought like 10 cases of it to keep at work. He died liked a month later and I got like 8 cases that he didn’t use because he left them to me in his will.

When the water is nasty in every house, every building, every restaurant and you can even smell it by the public fountain, it's definitely a public water source issue. All the water here smells like farts and stinky garbage, and I'm in a medium sized city of 300k

Not specific to kirkland, but for this kind of shit I wonder if they actually ship the water, or if they just use some fat italian guy from brooklyn's bathwater? Or maybe they scrape up some sand from an italian spring and filter tap water through it.
