Interesting, personally though I drink soda for carbonation, maybe I need european water or something
i remeber i walked into this bar on 4th ave for happy hour once. They poured me a glass of water and put a cucumber in it. I left.
I think it's just one of those things ya gotta stop doing for long enough to realize how craptastic it is. I stopped drinking soda when I was around 20 and now there's no goin' back. Can't stand the shit.
