It's good, but I prefer my filtered water from the fridge

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

It knows what taste is.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

It's good. Not the greatest thing ever but it's better than drinking soda.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

It’s good if you don’t like strong carbonation β€œflavor” I just drink store brand carbonated water because it’s cheaper and I like the carbonation

It's a brand of flavored sparkling water.

My wife loves it and I hate it for the exact same reasons.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

it gets my clothes clean, that's all I'm asking

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Make your own. Here, I got this from another lemming

a real CO2 cylinder with a CGA 320 valve (the 10lb size is plenty) a CGA-320 CO2 regulator some 1/4" ID reinforced PVC tubing a carbonation cap + 1/4" barb ball lock disconnect

Would rather drink warm water from the tap in a small town with shitty water

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Once I got stoned and had a sip. It was quite the experience.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Spindrift ruined it for me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Spindrift is top tier. Best Sparkling water on the market

[–] [email protected] -4 points 3 months ago (3 children)

It's ok. I prefer club soda from the gun and most restaurants here don't charge for that.

It irritates me when people say, "i don't drink soda" and then grab a flavored bubbly water.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

Soda is filled with massive amounts of sugar and caffeine. It is extremely different from carbonated water.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

La Croix considered a soda? Welp, guess my lime flavored water is a soda too lol

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

Huge difference in sugar content in La Croix or Spindrift or whatever other brand and sodas.

I really like the stuff but that description is TOO accurate.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

And that's fine, some people like canned static. I happen to like deep fried bull testicles

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Pretty much what all carbonated water tastes like to me. Gag inducing seltzer

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

It sucks. Generic store seltzer is better.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago

It tastes like ass, but over time you grow to enjoy the taste of ass, and eventually you prefer the taste of ass .

I see you are a gentleman of fine taste 🧐

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Honestly all brands of seltzer are equal, even cheap ones. And I really like seltzer. I just get whatever is cheapest.

La Croix is fine, got a bunch from my boss after a party of his. It's very unexceptional

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Strong disagree. There's a massive difference in the taste between LA Croix and cheaper/generic brands.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I definitely agree, but I was expecting you to compare with something more expensive. Personally I really like Spindrift, but it's like 2x the price. On the other hand, you can't beat tap water for value (or filtered water depending on your local water quality).
