People who are saying that there is no noticable difference between tap water and bottled water are either poor, naive, or both. [/ QUOTE ] Just because you notice that there's a difference doesn't mean you prefer one to the other. It's water, as long as it's wet and doesn't taste like complete ass I'm fine with it. |

Re: People who buy bottled water are fish at life.
Didn't read the whole thread or article but some tap water is worse than others. The tap water by me is pretty gross.
You can see "things" floating in it. They might not be bad for me health wise, but I don't even drink orange juice with pulp, there's no frikken way I'm drinking water with pulp. Plus bottled water is not close to $1/b here when you buy it in bulk. You can get a case of 24 for $8 (if it's on sale). |

Re: People who buy bottled water are fish at life.
Referring to a Stossel article destroys ones credibility, in reference to anything imaginable.
But yea, I buy 24 packs of bottled water for $4, and refill the empties with RI tap and throw them in the fridge, I probably buy a new pack every few months once the bottles get all beaten up or whatever. Not a big deal. |

Re: People who buy bottled water are fish at life.
While wholly aware of the whole bottled water scam, I have to ask if any of you have ever tried Florida tap water? It's absolutely disgusting, and has a very strong sulfer taste. Yes, I know bottled water is a scam, and rarely drink it, but I also assume you live in a locale where the tap water is drinkable.

Dude, there's also a huge difference in the granularity of the 3rd sense of people. Just because you can't taste a big difference in water doesn't mean that other people can't, either. It's like some people being able to smell that someone has had a smoke from 5 miles away (my dad is one of those), while I can basically stand right next to that person and not notice it at all (and that being a non-smoker, fwiw). [/ QUOTE ] i will grant you that some ppl are more sensitive to taste differences than others. that doesn't mean that they aren't susceptible to placebo effects. |

Tap water here is pretty bad, but I've used a filter for years. Fill up a pitcher and you have cold water.
