Soda stream has been owned by Pepsi for a while now. It’s no longer exclusively manufactured in Israel.
Correct. Per the BNC:
August 22, 2018 — Earlier this week, PepsiCo announced that it signed an agreement to buy SodaStream, a producer of home-carbonation machines. SodaStream has faced global boycotts because of its complicity in Israel’s grave violations of Palestinian human rights.
Omar Barghouti, co-founder of the BDS movement for Palestinian rights, said:
SodaStream is still subject to boycott by the global, Palestinian-led BDS movement for Palestinian rights. Its new factory is actively complicit in Israel’s policy of displacing the indigenous Bedouin-Palestinian citizens of Israel in the Naqab (Negev). SodaStream’s mistreatment of and discrimination against Palestinian workers is not forgotten either.
I did this and it works well: https://www.popsci.com/diy/article/2012-06/how-make-your-own-home-carbonation-system/
cheaper and ethically sourced bubbly water?
absolute win
I bought a used SodaStream for 40 Canadian dollars and an adapter on Amazon for 20.
I then go to the welding supply store and buy food rated CO2. It is usually called beer gas here in Soviet canuckistan.
I get a 45 lb bottle for $40.
Forty. Five. Pounds.
I thought my 15kg bottle was big! Careful you don’t knock it over and accidentally create a cruise missile!
I ain’t typing those urls. Anyone have the links handy?
one sec ill add them to the body text, e: done
Thanks!
But the other choice is to drink still water and I can’t do that.
my buddy drank 1 cups of st*ll water and ended up in the woke hospital for three weeks 🤢
We have standardized CO2 bottles here, that can be swapped at normal grocery stores. No needrto buy proprietary CO2 cartridges.
I use a Sparkel to make things bubbly, you can buy the baking soda and citric acid in bulk for way cheaper than the packs they sell and can carbonate basically any liquid
milk
I hate this
Someone else did it, it’s terrible, because of course it is
Carbonation creates an acidic flavor, which essentially makes milk taste spoiled
just shake the water harder to fizz it up
I always get confused about that too, no matter how hard you shake still water it’s still still water.
if u shake it hard enough and or at a low enough pressure it might become vapor
Yeah that happened to my penis on lonely night.
i enjoyed this response
I thought of you when I wrote it.

love my Aarke 😍
I like it too, but still need to buy the sodastream co2 bottles
I use Aarke’s subscription. They have a branding deal with sodasense.
There are also tutorials on how to set up c02 tanks, a little cost up front but far cheaper than any other option.
