A way to deal with N. American ice servings.
- ajma 3y agoI usually ask for no ice. You get more beverage that way too.
- em-bee 3y agoyup, although with sugar drinks i eventually realized that getting them with ice meant i'd dilute the drink and consume less sugar. tough choices...
- stkdump 3y agoAlso a colder drink burns more calories heating it up to body temp...
- pleb_nz 3y agoThey got wise to that in my region. Drink dispensers are automated and you get the same quantity of drink with or without ice.
- NoZebra120vClip 3y agoI used to demand no ice, and it worked ok in sit-down+waitress restaurants, but on GrubHub they will ignore that every time. So what I do now is not even worry about the order, but when the drinks arrive I strain out all the ice, to stop the melting and dilution process. Unfortunately I still see an appalling amount of ice displacing the volume of beverage. Also, I have a beard, and so a straw is the best thing to prevent milk or soda or whatever soaking into my facial hair. Currently I have a vast stockpile of plastic straws, because I usually order two drinks but use one straw. Mostly, the only sustainable, crap straws are the ones I've purchased separately.
