Wikipedia: Carbonated water
Carbonated water (also known as soda water, sparkling water, fizzy water, water with gas or (especially in the U.S.) as seltzer or seltzer water) is water containing dissolved carbon dioxide gas, either artificially injected under pressure or occurring due to natural geological processes. Carbonation causes small bubbles to form, giving the water an effervescent quality. Common forms include sparkling natural mineral water, club soda, and commercially-produced sparkling water.

Seltzer water
Saw a joke on instagram today that says seltzer water takes like tv static and I laughed because that’s how I felt before I went on keto 3 weeks ago. My gf drinks seltzer water and I always hated that dry aftertaste but after not having soda, other than a couple of sips of ginger ale and a diet coke, i’ve come to enjoy the different flavors of seltzer water stop & shop has. Anybody else have their tastes change?

If TV static was edible, it would probably taste like plain seltzer water.
