    I really like their lime flavor but I don’t get them very often. Are people here mad that consumers like to buy something with fun marketing? Yeah it’s a sparkling water with a ridiculous name. Sorry for having fun.

      Where I am it’s about twice the price of other sparkling water. Live your life however you love but that’s the reason.

      Judging by some of the comments here and Lemmy in general. Yes.

      Although I think a lot of that, has to do with its popularity more than anything else.

        The mango is pretty good. Everyone in here is attempting to dunk on still water in a can that’s $4 and ignoring that this is regularly sold at venues with a captured audience who can’t bring in outside drinks and that it’s the best sparkling water around.

        I’ve only ever bought their peach tea. It was pretty tasty, but not something I would get all of the time. It was a nice alternative to other teas you find in the gas station.

        I didn’t even know they sold water. I’ve only ever seen tea.

      Aldi’s sells little bottles of sparkling mineral water where I live. I always grab one when I go there.

      People like metal cans, and they like bubbly drinks. I share in your confusion.
