Water - What kind? (1 Viewer)

[Flying V]

Tap. It's free.

This is like people that buy books when they are paying taxes to support a public library. It's such s waste of money to not drink tap water,

It's like the pet rock. Only way more suckers.

add in all the unnecessary waste these plastic water bottles create, it's absurd.

Even more absurd is why all those bottles don't get recycled. It's just not that difficult to make happen (aside from the sheer laziness of people in general).

FIL has well water. No filtration system, and he's lost his sense of smell. Glass of water, washing hands, or taking a shower....all smell like someone just farted directly in your face. A juicy fart. He has no clue how terrible his water tastes.

Also spent time selling door to door in the rural parts of Wisconsin and Michigan. I learned quickly to politely decline when offered a glass of water.

I mostly drink Brita filtered city water, but I'd gladly take chlorine tasting city water over sulfur well water, if I were ever given a choice. Cold mostly knocks out the chlorine. Nothing helps bad well water.

Don't understand why people are so against bottled water because you can drink tap water.

We purchase things because of their value. Cheap bottled water tastes much better than tap water, at least here, so that's what I get and it is worth $0.89 a gallon.

I don't like the garbage it creates and the dependence on petroleum products.

There are several ways to treat well water for sulfur.

If you are worried about bacteria etc. a few ounces of vodka works well as a purification method.

Ounces?!



Nice. Sign me up.

Tap where I am is awful. You'd be a fool to drink it. We get excessive arsenic warnings several times a year. Most of Southern California has unhealthy tap. Same with Vegas.

I liked my women like I like my water - bonded and wet.

Yeah sorry about that. They're activist nutjobs, but if you read the link they are reporting the testing done by water utilities. There's better links with the results of the tests, including many cities that didn't provide results. They're not making wild claims about sunscreen here. They're showing the best cities too, and ranking them by the chemicals and other compounds found by utility testing. I have a mailer in front of me right now saying the arsenic in my water is "just barely" over the epa acceptable threshold. I ain't drinking it. It tastes horrible anyway. I won't cook pasta or rice with it.
