Argument stemming from husband's Perrier sparkling water addiction. Who's in the wrong?

Why do people treat their spouses like the enemy?

Amazed you didnt file for divorce over this habit of his. Shows how weak and afraid you are.

It's ok to leave him over this. Do not feel trapped. There is also help for you if you need it.

This guy is going to be wondering why cartons of Perrier are showing up at his door

He buys them himself, lugs them himself. Done.

To be clear, it's not the 6-pack of tiny bottles, I'm talking big 1L bottle tables are supposed to share. I was raised that sparkling water is more-so a palate cleanser, it's uncouth to lap it up like you just finished a sportball match. Drives me up a wall to see all those empty 1L bottles stacking up.

Too funny.

I dunno...why do some people treat their spouses like a pack mule?

I was just at Costco and almost bought a case of Perrier... only because of this thread! OP's DH is making us all addicts. I am glad I resisted the urge, but temptation was strong! I almost became a chugger!

13 pages and the OP does not return since very early in the thread (see sportball comment)....no doubt in my mind it's the hit and run troll who likes to throw out a crazy story just to see how many hits she can get. Winner winner chicken dinner, once again!

Perrier is a great palate cleanser after a chicken dinner.

The OP would HATE me - I buy cartons of Gerolsteiner from my food co-op and drink at LEAST two liters per day. It is my addiction. [/quote

Same! My rankings (1) Gerolsteiner (2) Topo Chico (3) Perrier. Topo has more carbonation than Perrier but less of a mineral taste. Gerolsteiner is a perfect mineral/carbonation combo.

I love brewing a really good pot of coffee each morning- I'm sure it's more expensive than the perrier. My DH would be in big trouble if he said I shouldn't drink it. Let it go-

We buy multiple cases of flavored sparkling water a week because we don’t drink soda. I only care that the empty cans end up in the recycling and no one touches my grapefruit ones.

I read the first page and thought this was way better and cheaper than alcohol. Skipped around and this comment made me laugh so hard.
