Hi,
When people got old, around age 30, they start drinking Soda. You realize this is the only unhealthy drink you can drink – just some sparking water. No sugar, color or other stuff that gives some taste.
But not me, I am old but still looks for hot chocolate 🤣. Atzva on the other hand started drinking Soda…
It started when she order it while we ordered food (it was Coronavirus year, and we could not really eat outside). Later she started buying six packs of 1.5 litter bottles.
In some point you realize you are paying for water (which you have in your faucet) and CO2. And your are mainly moving around water in a very un-efficent way, while you can just fill in a bottle of water and add CO2.
Just like the story over the bubble wrap, when someone realized all those trucks are driving around full of bubble wrap are mostly packed with… air 🙂. He realized it will be much efficient to sell the warp and a machine that inflate the bubbles in it.
The next reasonable step was to buy Soda Stream machine (and support the Israeli industry): the water comes from the faucet, and the soda stream just bubble it up 🙂
It remind my parents’ old Sypholux. It was an Israeli brand of soda siphon, and a must have wedding present when my parents got married. It came with small gas cartridges (as those used for inflating bike wheels today) that were screwed on the top.
It was usually very heavy with metallic view, but there were also some from glass.
Take Care
