You can always trust the tap water, at least on N. America.
I add a minerals product designed for RO to my drinking water. I only recently learned RO takes out the good as well as the bad stuff.
Mexico is on North America.
Northern North America. Right on.
I will not drink my tap water. It taste like chlorine. It is awful. Don’t know what happened because it use to be very good.
I drink nothing but the best brand bottled water: Kroger. And when I’m in socal, it’s Stater Brothers for me.
I insist.
A close friend insists on bottled water. She lives in another part of town which has a different water company, and the water there tastes awful. She was at my house once, spied a bottle of water in the refrigerator, drank it and pronounced it good. Unbeknownst to her, the original water in that bottle was long gone. She was drinking water from my tap.
The best way to go is investing in a water ionizer that both filters and alkalizes. View our Ionizers.
My tap water doesn’t taste like chlorine.
Probably because I do not chlorinate it.
I drink tap water, but I first run it through a Brita pitcher. Kinda have to; otherwise it tastes like it came out of a swimming pool.
Bottled water is regulated by the FDA.
Tap water by the EPA.
I know, tough choices.
Crystal Geyser gets their watter just down the road from me. Whenever friends from out of the area visit me they fill jugs full of water from my kitchen tap to take home because the water is so pure and clean. I never buy bottled water.
I buy bottled water by the case for two reasons. First, I live in an area with hurricanes. If our water is turned off, I need safe drinking water on hand. Second, I like the way Aquafina tastes, and it ALWAYS tastes the same. My tap water has an odd taste sometimes. I don’t think it’s harmful, I just don’t care for it. It’s my money. Bottled water is better for me than coke.
My tap water comes from my very own well and to hell with EPA and FDA. If our ancestors had died from drinking water that didn’t come in bottles we wouldn’t be here.
consider this about Aquafina and Dasani, the two best-selling products in this country, which combine for about $2 billion a year in sales: strip away the pretty blue labels and theyre just reprocessed tap water from cities. Aquafina counts the Detroit River as one of its sources, in fact.

When we lived in Midland TX the water was so bad. We had an RO system. Made the water awesome. But you had to change out the filter thingies pretty often. Still, very worth it.

Coincidence? I don’t think so....
