Spider drink water from a cotton swab.

I used to be a loyal Dasani drinker. After quitting soda, I switched to water full-time, and since Dasani was what my family always stocked, that’s what I drank. I never got the hate—it was just water to me. People online would drag it through the mud, and I’d think, “I don’t know what they’re talking about.”

Then I got a proper filter for our tap water, started keeping a massive jug of ice-cold, clean-tasting water with me at all times, and my perspective shifted hard. One day I forgot to clean my jug, so I grabbed a few Dasanis from the fridge instead.

Instant regret.

It tasted off. Like weirdly salty, kind of metallic, and just… unpleasant. I couldn’t believe I used to drink this stuff without blinking. It’s like once your taste buds experience real, fresh water, there’s no going back.

So yeah, I finally get the memes. Dasani really is the villain of the bottled water world.

Found this online, felt you all might appreciate it here :)

(also time for that pre sleep cup of cool water yum)

like at breakfast i AT LEAST drink 4 cups and throught the whole day i keep drinking more water it got to a point i hate drinking coke and only prefer water at dinner💀💀

im not here to say im addicted tho im looking if it can cause some problems on my later life if i keep drinking water like this (also water tastes way better than coke and sodas tbh no offense😭🙏)

It’s just one packet mixed with tap water.

Chris Travis is a rapper who loves water and his independent record label is called “Waterboyz”. In the album cover, you can see him holding a water bottle of a brand I always wanted to know what brand it was lol not that it matters. Obviously you can’t get drunk off water like you can with alcohol, but if being “drunk off water” was a thing then what is it to you? Is it the feeling of being fully hydrated? 😂

I've seen liquid IV and if I understand it's essentially just a Gatorade mix for water right? Assuming I intake a good amount of water with it(I generaly do 8 bottles of water to a bottle of Gatorade) does it actually hydrate better than other electrolyte drinks? What's this comunitys stance on it? Or is it just another flavored salt I add to my drink? Sorry if this has been asked before I couldn't find a definitive answer.

I take Creatine and drink almost a gallon of water a day, would it be an issue mixing my gallon of water daily intake with hydration sticks to make the water have some taste to it?

Hi Homies--

I have completely replaced drinking soda with la croix, waterloo, and just plain sparkling water. That is certainly a W, but I feel bad about the waste created from cans and bottles. It also costs money, unlike normal water. Would a sodastream be worth it to carbonate the reverse osmosis water I already have?

I drink tap water as well as propel electrolyte/flavored water. The propel often helps me to feel less parched, but tap water rarely does. I could drink plenty of tap water and still feel dehydrated. I also have acid reflux which feels similar to feeling parched sometimes. Propel helps acid reflux go away, tap water doesn’t really help. What’s going on?

I’ve never done well with electrolytes or all those fancy powders. For me, it’s been water. I used to drink a lot of water sometimes up to a gallon a day and felt great.

I’m ready to start but I’m curious, is there going to be a paradoxical reaction?

How should I titrate up? I assume I won’t feel good going straight to a gallon in a day…

I started to have weird symptoms like low grade dizziness where I feel dizzy and disequilibrium or like I am floating, especially with motion and when I turn my head. No fun at all. Is this from not drinking enough water?

Also urine has been dark yellow 80% of the time.

Why does my thermoflask mold so fast?

I wash my bottle very frequently, however i notice this week the seal was EXTREMELY moldy. My other bottle I have (the same brand) gets washed on alternating days when i switch between the 2 bottles for wash and soak days.

Im wondering if theres a rip somewhere? Should i contact the company?

My other bottle never has this issue. Both get soaked in hot soapy water, washed, q tips used to clean the rims, rinsed and set to air dry, the lid and seals are not wet when they get placed back into the lid.

I don't drink enough, and a lot of the time I just forget to drink because I never feel thirsty, unless I've had loads of salt in a meal, mainly when I eat something from a takeaway.

This image is purely an example. Most supermarkets sell their own brand (in the UK at least). I think bitter lemon falls under tonic water as well.

Thoughts & feelings on it?
