I’ve never understood this reasoning, why is this a downside? You need water to live. Air has no scent and yet no one insists on only consuming air with scented candles.
Besides, if you really need a flavour, squirt a little citrus juice or something in there, your tastebuds don’t need to be bombarded 24/7.

- jasomill 3y agoSpeaking as an American ex-Diet Coke addict who now mostly drinks water, I've found the off-the-shelf sweet drinks I do occasionally consume — fruit juices and ginger ale, mostly — taste better mixed roughly 4:1 with water, because less sweet. When offered a drink, aside from the occasional (non-sweet) alcoholic beverage, I typically choose (flavorless) water.

- mattlondon 3y agoYes and we can all sit and eat flavourless rice cakes too! No one ever needs to eat anything apart from totally bland and flavourless substances! /s People eat for pleasure, and people drink for pleasure too. People like things to taste nice sometimes, get off their case.

- bryans 3y ago> Air has no scent and yet no one insists on only consuming air with scented candles. Well that's not true at all, given that millions of households use continuous plug-in air fresheners all day, every day. Multiple industries exist solely around scenting the air. Your analogy just doesn't hold up to reality.
