Sparkling and soda water?

Question

what is the difference??

Answer 1

It's just the same in a way that both are infused with carbon dioxide gas.  Soda water however may container other salts and other cabonates.

Answer 2

i dont think anything. i know some countries outside US call sparkling water Soda.

Answer 3

One is sparkling fizzy MINERAL water. (added minerals such as potassium magnesium etc etc.)

One is fizzy TABLE water/ TAP water. (JUST water)

The first one leaves the mouth very dry and has an after taste. the second one is usually much cheaper and more refreshing

Answer 4

One just has CO2 pumped into it, the other has soda added.

Answer 5

Sparkling water occurs naturally.  Soda water or seltzer has CO2 added to it for effervescence.

Answer 6

soda water is just recommended for flavouring

mineral water can contain extra minerals for you

Answer 7

You have answers as to what the difference may be (if any)... BUT which is better for you? Why neither. Anything fizzy is very bad news indeed FOR YOUR TEETH!

Fizzy (including water) softens the dentine (the hard porcelain-like coating of teeth) so that sugars can attack your teeth and cause decay quicker! Avoid eating anything sweet or carbohydrates for a half hour after drinking fizzy water or soda to minimise the effect on your poor old teeth.

This is why the invention of fizzy drinks such as Cola was such bad news for the oral health of everyone, but especially children. Sugar + fizz is far worse than plain sugar!

Answer 8

i think they're both practically the same is each other but i prefer sparkling water because it's got a sweeter taste. Thats wat i think but loads of ppl av their own opinion. But im not sure wat the big differ is between the of them??
