I like it because it helps break my Coke addiction.
EDIT: Coca-Cola* addiction
I fucking love sparkling water.
Same. I didn’t always love it, but once it grew on me… can’t get enough.
I love it. Its like 10 times more refreshing than regular water.
I do like sparkling water very much!
It just gives you tingles. I can’t go without actually…
I love it. I set my SodaStream to “Violent”.
I tried Perrier water (I think that’s its name) once and it was awful.
And “flavored” sparkling water that just adds the faintest whiff of a scent and absolutely no flavor
Sparkling water tastes like the Sprite machine is broken.
I’ve noticed that people who hate sparkling water are often soda drinkers. Makes sense.
I don’t get it too. It tasting like TV static is an apt description.
As an appreciator of sparkling water, I still found this comment hilarious.
I have my own diy carbonation system. I love carbonated water, and it is absolutely amazing mixing it with juice or simple syrup, or just carbonating whatever liquid I feel like, like pasta sauce.
Pasta sauce? Prithee, to what end result?
Jack Regent speaking the truth to power.
It mimics soda in that it triggers the same release as I get from chugging soda. It’s a particular “refreshing” feeling that makes my eyes water. I suspect for soda it was the sugar addiction that gave me the release, but because both are carbonated it tricks my brain. Or maybe it’s the carbonation alone that triggers it.
Does anyone experience the same?
100%. I especially get a craving for coke after having carbs or fried foods. I recently tried Topo and have fallen in love with it since it fills that craving. But make no mistake, other sparkling waters to me taste like shit. Topo just hits different.
Sparkling water is cheaper than regular water in the grocery store. Although I have a suspension it’s due to weighing less.
CO2 molecules are heavier and denser than water, and in a closed container, it isn’t in gaseous form. So sparkling water is heavier than normal water of the same volume.
Welp, good science knowledge right there. There goes my theory.
