Also, sparkling water has its own flavor because when water is carbonated the Co2 reacts with the water to make Carbonic Acid which also lowers the PH of the water so sparkling water itself is mildly acidic.

I was never a big soda fan. But Waterloo was my gateway sparkling water 5 years ago and I've never been the same lol.

@cassidyszewczyk5029 Месяц назад

That's pretty funny, since the reason why I like Waterloo is because it's sweeter, and thus more soda like for me. It's interesting how two people can get completely different readings from the same food, like with cilantro and the soap gene.

I agree with Josh re: how "hard" sparkling water should be. If it doesn't burn my nose like I just got blasted by an ocean wave, not bubbly enough.

@sonatine3266 Месяц назад

I can't drink tap water / water that's not sparkling. But here in Germany many people grow up drinking only "mineral water" / "Sprudel" / "sparkling water" (many names for it), which is standard bottle water from some spring in the mountains or so and then enriched with carbonic acid -> bubbles (mostly available in Medium and Classic, which reglement the amount of the bubbles). Sparkling water with flavor is available by several companies, too. For example Vilsa... they have lemonades and classic German Apfelschorle (sparkling water with applejuice) and Sportschorle (high amount of sparkling water with apple + grapefruit or similar stuff). People who love LaCroix would probably be in heaven in Germany... you get a lot of similar stuff and more for down to 20% of the price.

@Tan3l6 Месяц назад

Bottled water, even if sparkling or flavored, is overrated. But I guess tap water in many places is not consumable...

@gucciguy3408 Месяц назад

Yea not many bottled water i’d get.And only then it is flavored and only the walmart brand because I like them personally… Bottled water prices are insane and there is hardly any difference between them though people will insanely talk about how one is vastly better than others. When they are about as good as most tap water.

@MikeInOregon Месяц назад

Try distilling a gallon of your tap water. After you see the “residue” left over you may change your mind about how great your water is.

@10whatsmyname01 Месяц назад

I felt the same way until I found out I was full of kidney stones from drinking tap water for 25 years. I could not care less about the taste but unless you have a reverse osmosis filter it's not healthy to drink your tap water.

@Tan3l6 Месяц назад

@@MikeInOregon you do realise that "distilled water" that has no residue after boiling also has no beneficial minerals nor other substances? And again - it all depends where the tap water is taken. Here where I live the residue from boiling a few liters has a white residue, yet is that unheathly?

@Tan3l6 Месяц назад

@@10whatsmyname01 again, it depends on region, but is the sole cause of kidney stones really tap water? Though: "On the other hand, some studies show that hard water (most tap water in the U.S.) could potentially increase the risk of kidney stones due to its high mineral content. But the evidence is sparse." Milk contains a big amount of calcium - is that more likely to cause kidney stones? Calcium in your drinks were promoted as "good for your bones" aka Milk!

I just can’t do any flavored sparkling water except for the 1 liter Walmart Clear Choice drinks. Most have more flavor and sweetened with aspartame. Most sparkling waters only have a “suggestion “ of flavor. I tried adding the packets of Orange Crush flavoring but can still taste the weird mineral flavor. I actually get flat flavored water when I can.

@Scrofar Месяц назад

Instead of meal prep, I do more of a base prep and cook a ton of plain rice/pasta/some form of carbs that'll last me a week. I also prep my proteins and vegetables separately. With the assortment of condiments or spices I have on hand, I can mix up a different arrangement everyday and have my variety without thinking too hard or spending too much time switching up the meal each time. I can have more protein for the second meal, or more vegetables the next night with a different sauce, or just eat the base with a lot of spices on the final night. Every meal following prep day is a new way for me to arrange my platter without it getting too monotone the next time!

Glad to know I agree with Josh on most accounts (and Nicole when it comes to Spindrift). Give me La Croix, Mineragua, or Topo. The rest can burn, and that mostly comes down to them being carbonated for little babies. As far as flavored sparkling waters go, I think La Croix has the most natural tasting flavors that aren't too strong. Special shoutout to La Croix Ni Cola which is the perfect version of a coke for me, all the spicy complexity of a coke but without the sugar.

I love those meal prep suggestions! Our current menu is chicken breast in a basic salt brine and then baked, with rice (half Knorr chicken rice and half white rice) and we have a bunch of sauces so every day we just add whatever we are feeling, like BBQ, Orange, Sweet and Sour, soy Sauce, etc. Add streamable bag of veg and super good meal
