[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Husband drinks a 1L bottle of Perrier every night, sometimes cracking an additional one after dinner. As in, the size we use for the table, he will grab his own and drink the entire thing during dinner, while the rest of the table is content to share one 1L bottle. They only cost about $1-2/each,  but it bothers me so much. I encourage him to just drink still filtered tap if he's so dehydrated but he refuses. I do the shopping, so lugging all the 1L bottles every week is a real chore, plus recycling all of them, and isn't it sort of gluttonous and unseemly. I think he started cracking the additional bottles after dinner just to tick me off.[/quote]

[b]Sparkling water is methodone for soda ... or beer.[/b]

Is he drinking it to avoid one of those?

If so, let it go.

What?  I've been drinking sparkling water for a good 25 years. [b]It replaced my diet soda habit.[/b]  My husband and kids drink it, too.

It is actually good to keep yourself hydrated by drinking lots of water - including sparkling water.  Try it!

You've illustrated the PP's point perfectly.  You used sparkling water to replace your diet soda habit in the same way an addict uses methadone to end his habit.[/quote]
