the hell happened?!?!

i was raised as a yute with sparkling water common in the house. both my parents and grandparents liked buying 1.5L polish water fromt the many european groceries in the nw burbs or plain lacroix when we wanted cans.

now lacroix is some hip cool millenial beverage? da fuck?

there are now all these weird flavors like cherry lime and tangerine. don't these people know that shit will rot their teeth! fucking millenials...we're the worst.

La Croix is good but sometimes it makes you thirstier than you would have been if you'd just had plain old tap water.

I think it's more an East Coast thing, but Polar can be a good alternative. They have an orange vanilla seltzer that's *mwah*

maybe i'm pulling a hatchetman here but i read the carbonation and citric acid of lacroix is a big no-no for teeth.

end up looking like a meth head. skinny and no teeth

The citric acid content must be negligible because it's not listed on the can. Source: am drinking lime La Croix as we speak

Yes. Diet Coke and Sprite Zero.

I give up though. I'm just going to ride the wave down to death by sparkling water.

Just eat and drink what you want. In 15 years everything bad will be good again and everything good will be bad.

JERRY: Don't you know the difference between seltzer and salsa? You have the seltzer after the salsa!

At my peak I was drinking a 2 liter a day of diet coke. It's been a long road back.
