Does carbonated water taste good?

Carbonated water does not taste good. Have you ever gone to refill your soda and the syrup is out? All you will taste is the carbonated water, gross. Similarly if you put dry ice in a water cooler filled with regular water, the CO2 given off by the dry ice 'vaporizing' can mix with the water and cause it to taste like carbonated water if not allowed to vent. If the dry ice 'vaporization' is allowed to vent out then all you will taste is water, but it will be ice cold.

Why do you use ice but not cold water in your drinks?

(Because) Ice can cool the drink without mixing with it, or at least it can before it melts. Using just cold water would ruin the taste of the beverage (it washes it out, yech). if you're talking about putting ice or cold water into a glass of water, than that is ironic, because if you are going to put cold water into your cup of warm water, why not just drink the cold water in the first place?

Why doesnt milk in the refrigerator ever taste as cold as the water or soda in the refrigerator?

Actually, the milk does get as cold as the water and the soda. One can verify this with a thermometer. What happens here is that we do not taste the milk to be as cold because the milk contains fat solids, that somehow distort our perception. Taste experts refer to this phenomenon as "mouthfeel." Another way to test this is to keep in your freezer an ice cream cone and a popscicle for 24 hours. Then eat them both. Which one do you think will taste colder?
