I get it, you're better than me because you like it and I don't.

Bonus religious connotation

It's not an issue though since it's fr*nch.

Fun fact: Vampires can say God in fr*nch without issues, because it's such a godless language

Brainwashed by popular sugar products, the human makes fun of healthier alternatives. Where’s my high fructose corn syrup, caffeine, and cancer causing agents?! /s

Context? Does it taste bad or?

It taste like drinking carbonated water while someone whispers the flavor three rooms over πŸ˜…

To me I thought the same for a long time, until I realized things like soda had completely nuked my taste buds. After cutting out soda and other insanely high in sugar things a lot more started tasting better, and la croix now has a ton of flavor.

I'm sure that's probably true for many people, but also some people just don't vibe with seltzers. I quit drinking everything but water and black coffee a few years back due to kidney stones and I still can't stand lightly flavored seltzers.

It's aftertaste as a flavor.

This is the best description I've read lol.

I'm guessing they just don't care for the cool, refreshing taste of sparkling water

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No, I just prefer to taste a flavor rather than just reading it on the label 🀣

If you don’t drink sugary drinks on the regular, they have plenty of flavor

No. Some people just can’t handle subtlety.

It tastes like licking a crt screen that is showing the scrambled image of a grapefruit.

So, it's great when the office stocks it for free.

The Lemoncello is a strong delicious flavor.

The Cherry Blossom is NASTY, it tastes like tootsie rolls.

Lacroix? Taste?

Are you a super taster or something? I only ever taste cardboard with a fine mist of watered down fruit juice when I drink them.

Bubbly’s are way better, or even Waterloos.

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

Well, I don’t drink any sugary drinks ever, so that may be part of it. But the Lemoncello specifically has very much taste!

If that’s the devils water I guess I’m a devil worshipper. I love sparkling water. La croix is very good however Spindrift is my favorite and love all their flavors.

Maaaan. I kicked soda several years back and I like flavored water now lol. It's getting a bit pricey now these days.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Get a soda maker and add a tiny amount of syrup or fruit juice

I'll take Pellegrino. But the devil didn't make carbonated water, he made Canada Geese,

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I don't feel as strongly about la croix, but if I have a choice I'm getting polar water instead. If you're looking for flavored water, it's the best imho.

There are a lot of categories of food and drink that I will never understand how anyone likes them. 'Unsweetened and carbonated' is reasonably high on the list for me - carbonation itself is bitter in my experience, and bitter by itself is unpleasant.

Of course different strokes for different folks, I don't think people who like it should stop, I just don't get why they do.

If I ever have to unload one of those fucking trucks again I'm going to commit a terrorist attack.
