When did "ice water" become ice, water and a lemon? I find it odd that I have to specify not to put lemon in my drink at restaurants.

Does anyone have insight into when and why this became standard practice?

As a side note, Baton Rouge has the best tasting water of anywhere I have ever been.

Is it really that hard to remove a lemon wedge from your drink?

I'm with you on this one. It is just another way for germs to get in your system. germs on knife/cutting board while cutting lemons, germs on fingers picking up lemon to put in glass.

If you're looking at it with this much scrutiny, you probably don't want to know what happens to your food too.

This is why so many kids are getting sick, germs strengthen our immune system.

It's far easier to just not put it in the water to begin with.

Need more alcohol in the glass to kill the germs.

If I order a Ribeye and they slather it in oranges, I guess I should have asked for it minus orange? It's damn ice water.

If you think BR tap water tastes good, you need to travel more.

I'm not worried about the germs. It's the fecal matter.

What a retarded analogy.
