The tap water here in Socal isn't that bad, i'll drink it. My gf won't, so we buy alot of bottled water. I've always preferred the taste of FIJI. I don't see how people can say it doesn't taste different. When I lived in AZ I drank only bottled water. The tap was pretty terrible there.

The real issue is the totally unecessary cost of transporting trucks full of tiny bottles of water around the world.

Grunching, but do you realize how stupid this sounds?
"Even in areas using groundwater that sometimes have a funny taste, I'd think you would get used to it." |

Memphis has some of the best water in the country out of the tap. I still don't like the taste of it so I have a Brita Filter but I don't see the problem with buying bottle water. I occasionally drink from the tap at my church through the water fountains but there is still a different taste. If you don't like it you don't have to deal with it. I wouldn't recommend buying Fiji water or whatever, but the local brand is probally good enough. Honestly, one of my jobs is to run a system that makes ultra pure water (US Pharmacopia Water). The tap water is around 150 microsiemens (measurement of conductivity) and has chlorine, etc. After using a reverse osmosis system our water is .7 microsiemens. So there is still a bunch of "bad" stuff in the tap water (it's really not that bad). You can notice it, water from the tap isn't that pure. I've tasted my purified water and it's probally too pure. It's actually not that good for you since it'll pull nutrients right from your body.
