I love it. I set my SodaStream to "Violent".
It just gives you tingles. I can't go without actually..
As an appreciator of sparkling water, I still found this comment hilarious.
I love how most the comments are the opposite.
... I too love sparkle water
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?
I like it because it helps break my Coke addiction.
EDIT: Coca-Cola* addiction
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 love it. Its like 10 times more refreshing than regular water.
I do like sparkling water very much!
Jack Regent speaking the truth to power.
I don't get it too. It tasting like TV static is an apt description.
I tried Perrier water (I think that's its name) once and it was awful.
I like it... :(
I was trying to reduce the amount of Coke I was drinking. I discovered it was the fizz I liked, not the syrup. Now I have a sodastream machine I use to make fizzy water.
And something similar to Coke.
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.
We need a community for brandnew sentences!
Yes, exactly
My wife hates it, but I have always enjoyed it. It also works excellent to breakup thick mucous when you have had radiation to the neck area. Your thin mucous from salivary glands stop producing, while the thicker saliva keeps being formed. Regular water does hardly anything, the sparkling water breaks it up.
This guy knows mucous
Too well unfortunately. It gets so thick during treatment that spitting it out is like the magician doing the endless scarf trick.
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.
