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

[Anonymous]

Have him buy them and lug them home himself.

They sell fridges that produce sparking water

I agree it’s really gluttonous and wasteful. I would refuse to buy and let him handle it.

I drink at least 1L of sparkling water per day. I use a sodastream but who cares. If he likes Perrier it's not so terrible. It's like what, 8 bottles a week?

[Anonymous]

Just order them online and have them delivered. This is a non problem.

Sodastream will taste more like Perrier if you only go to one light with the carbonation. I, personally, carbonate through the light cycle at least twice because I like the bubbles to be big and brassy, go kind of up my nose, and cause me to burb loudly after the first gulp. I drink 1-2 liters per day.

How long have you been married?
It’s wasteful. It is.
But pick your battles. This is not one to pick.
You don’t have to buy or dispose of the bottles and it’s fair that he handles it. But you can’t tell him what to drink.

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.

Oh, OP. I was having a bad day, but this, this is really warming my soul. I'm going to hold this tidbit close to my heart. Thank you.

yes, yes. : )

Soda stream is for seltzer water. Perrier (and Pellegrino) is sparkling mineral water.

Not exactly the same.

How dare your husband drink mineral water in quantities larger than those dictated by you!

Exactly. Wow. Sorry he likes to drink too much bubbly water. So decadent.

Team wife here. He doesn't sound capable of making good choices.
