Used to do simple Be'er Mayim only, after trying some bubly and polar flavored seltzer I concluded there's a place for them at times as well.

How about Schweppes? It's been a long time since I had any, but I remember liking them.

Edit: (Correction: I may have had some more recently than I thought - I've just realized
I haven't been paying any attention to the brand of the seltzer cans I've been drinking.)

Do you want to play a board game, digitally or in Lakewood NJ? PM me. (Can be asynchronous, i.e. take turns whenever)

I might have to challenge to a duel anyone who disparages NYC water
I on purpose didn't name a specific place, but once you bring it up, NYC water is absolutely aweful.
Have you ever had water from a pure flowing stream?

I'd but that together with all the standard brands, nothing special.
Special mention to mango flavored LeCroix

That's not much. In the summer my wife an I could each easily go through 3-4 bottles a day.
What about the "greps"?
How many per day and at what decibel? ;D
I’m in shape, round is a shape…

Sodastream is a hassle and fizzles out too quickly.

+100000000000000000000

So you say I should stack up on those small SodaStream bottles, in addition to the Sodastream gas, so that I can hear the buzz making my own seltzer from NYC water?

That's why you'll be hard pressed to find a Floridian drinking tap water, but plenty of New Yorkers love their ice cold tap water.

Indeed. Schweppes was considered one of the better national brands out there for Seltzer.

I know a ton of Floridians who drink tap water. I'm not one of them (unless fridge-flitered counts), but I still prefer it over NYC.

You don't like the taste of bugs in NY water?

I can't tell if some of the responses were just in jest but I'd be surprised if more than a small minority of nyc dwellers disliked the tap water. Upstate forget about it but thats not nyc.

Personally I've had tap water all across the 50 states with no problem except NJ.

The reason why Florida bagels tastes better than NYC?  :)

In my book:

Unflavored seltzer - Be'er Mayim

Flavored seltzer - Poland Spring or Schweppes

Cheap perfume - Polar (for external use ONLY)

Ever tried polar or bubly?

CMIIW I believe Be'er Mayim is made at the polar factory.
