I used to love Clearly Canadian growing up but i dunno how healthy it is. Surely it has a lot of sugar and what not?

Yeah it had sugar but a lot less than regular soda, so my health-nut parents let me drink it every so often. Man I loved those as a kid, those pretty blue bottles made them taste more refreshing.

There is a decent hard seltzer made locally here that uses apple wine for the alcohol. White claw sucks though.

I like lacroix but it makes me gassy

You can't have it both ways. You can't believe in climate change, but also believe that aspartame is somehow bad. My parents both drank a gallon a day of diet coke for decades and they're still fine. Artificial sweeteners are getting a bad rap from these same lying hypochondriacs with self-diagnosed celiacs'

La Croix Coconut is pretty good tho. Seconding polar orange vanilla, or probably most orange vanilla since that's objectively the best flavor of anything.

We don't allow sugar sodas at our house and we drink:

- La Croix
- Coke Zero
- Kirkland Vitarains (like a much, much better vitamin water with way more and improved flavor)

If there's one thing I've learned about seltzer is that everyone has wildly different tastes. I would seriously hesitate to call any single brand "the best" or even "better".

This is exactly what I mean. Coconut la croix tastes like loving rear end water to me. Like drinking a bottle of sunscreen. It's the only flavor of la croix that I truly hate. That doesn't mean it's bad, people just perceive seltzer flavors super differently for some reason.

I actually really like coconut water. Have some in my fridge right now, in fact. They don't taste similar at all, to me at least. Again I would liken coconut la croix to drinking sunscreen.

e: at the very least you have to agree that coconut water has a lot more overall flavors going on. Coconut la croix is like if you took a specific part of the coconut flavor and turned it to 11. Which is probably literally what they do.

I'll concede that in as much as urine has a lot more overall flavors going on as well.

My go-to for a complex flavor profile while sweetener free would probably be Constant Comment or Earl Grey. Earl Grey tastes like rear end but it is easier to acquire a taste for that plain than other teas, somehow.

Try Twinnings Lady Grey it's a decent black but with like half the bergomot.
You can take it straight and it's freaking great iced, if you like that. it's good stuff.

I have but one thing to say to you: Grow up, manchild.

If you could hold off filling your disgusting maw on garbage then maybe your brain could reset. You could appreciate a flavor that wasn't the result of pure disease for once.

I know it's hard for you LaCroix-hating slobs to even attempt to put down the candy-bar and fruit concentrate (for even a day), but you have to try for fucks sake. Become an adult and put the tootsie pops away.

That's 4 LaCroix flavors, 10 Polar flavors, and 3 Poland Spring flavors. So I guess someone drinks it lol

Someone drinks the Kombucha and Red Bulls as well... morons I assume.

Most of the Polar flavors are fantastic.

La Croix is generally garbage. There's a handful of good Bubly but they're the exception.

I never used to like seltzer water but got into it with the Walmart brand water. It tastes real good and not too "seltzerey" so I really would only drink that stuff. I recently tried some Bubly though and really enjoyed it so now I'm going down this path. I just finished a case of the assorted BJ's brand seltzer and they were real tasty, some neat flavors like cherry limeade and blackberry cucumber. I think I generally prefer Bubly right now though. There's something about the colorful cans makes me have an easier time fooling my brain into thinking I'm drinking soda.

I've drinken a lot of carbonated water in my life and actively drink way more than is probably healthy, but Perrier or San Pell is just label and there's no real difference between then and most other brands. Paying more for no reason. My favorite, because it's cheap, is just a Costco Pallete of Crystal Geyser plain. The Kirkland Sparkling Water in bottles is also good. Avoid the CG flavored ones, they suck rear end. It's almost amazing just how actively bad a lot of the pre-2010s flavored sparkling water is.

People said Spindrift and Waterloo, and I'll second those. If you want flavored carbonated water, those are my go-to hands-down. La Croix is very iffy, their really basic flavors are utterly bad, the Berry/Passionfruit is alright; however, their best flavors are the ones in the smaller cans like Kiwi Cucumber/Watermelon Lime/etc. Still, better off getting Spindrift or Waterloo

I dunno, in my opinion water from springs or wells tastes better than processed municipal tap water. Worth the extra (not to mention the hilarious environmental cost)? Not really.

That pic reminds me of when I worked at a remote mine site in Alaska and they had these Curious George fruit snacks that were loving amazing and then they ran out of them and everyone was super pissed but this fucker Allen still had some every day and after a week we got fed up with him flaunting his loving fruit snacks sitting there at lunch going “mmm these are so good” and “oh my god I’m so full from eating so many of these delicious fruit snacks” so we went back to his room and found 2 and a half cases of the motherfuckers so we beat him senseless and left him underground without a cap lamp.
