Move over soda.  Water is now America's favorite beverage.  From NY DAILY NEWS:

Our national love affair with soda has gone flat, thanks to a renewed thirst for an old flame.

Water has quietly replaced soda as America’s beverage of choice — ending soda’s 20-year-run in the top spot, statistics show.

Americans now consume an average of 58 gallons water annnually compared to 44 gallons of soda.
And while Mayor Bloomberg’s attempt to ban large sugary sodas to attack obesity has drawn fierce criticism, many Americans apparently agree.
