Isn’t bad? Carbonated water is the best.

Topo Chico is like crack.

The one time in my life I suffered from vertigo was after drinking canned water during Katrina recovery.

Probably just a major coincidence but nevertheless I have zero desire to drink canned water.

Canned water. Saw it in my travels but can't remember where. Possibly Dubai.

I don’t think I had any Katrina canned water that was cold so maybe that’d make the difference.

Possibly. Budweiser and Busch may have also been more concerned about quantity instead of quality with their process.

We consume a lot of plastic, because of plastic packaging.

I want to eliminate that from my own life.

Pocari Sweat is Japanese and it’s more of a light Gatorade than water.

Southwest Airlines used to have canned still water on their flights.

Anyone who wants to avoid plastic bottles will be recycling these cans. You know what else can be recycled? Water bottles.


This is aimed at people who don't want to ingest plastic.

I’m proud to say that I opposed single-use plastics decades ago. It never made sense to me to put water in a damned plastic bottle and then throw the bottle away after one use. It was stupid and expensive.

Same goes with cans but at least they’re recyclable.

Btw: I’m conservative and an avid fisherman. That shite is everywhere you go outdoors.

Agree but the funny thing is aluminum cans have a thin plastic liner but don't tell them that.

That's a myth. Plastic is "recycled", but it is not recycled in reality.

China was the only nation that truly recycled plastic, and they stopped some 10 years ago. In fact the US would send all of their plastic to China, so they could repurpose it


Aluminum is much easier to recycle

More than half of bottled water from all brands contain micro-plastics that you are consuming.

Budwesier has been doing this for decades

Anytime there is a natural disaster, they turn the beer taps off, and can water to give away to people in need. shite loads of cans, of water, truck by truck went to New Orleans, Houston,etc.

Sparkling water is just water with carbonation and plenty of people seem to enjoy that out of a can. Still waiting on the reveal of why it's such a terrible idea.
