« on: March 10, 2008, 04:19:39 AM »

I buy bottled water, drink it, and then refill the bottles with tap water and keep them in the 'frig.  All I drink is water and a cup or two of hot tea a day. No sodas (YUCK!), milk, or juice(too much sugar) for me.
If I had to pay for all the water I drink i would have to live in my car..... and there's just no room for a shower in there. 8)

Tap water only.   A good water filter is not only cheaper to utilize but far better for the environment.

I think that most studies have found that tap water is generally better for you than bottled water. The bottled water industry is largely unregulated and in some cases worse for you than regular old tap water. The bottled water industry has done a good job convincing the public that bottled water is healtier than tap water.

I drink whatever is available.  I really can't tell the difference.  I also use those little packets to pour in the water bottles.  I go through a ton of the green tea (fruit flavored) one. O0

At home, tap water. We have a very good water system here. When I travel, there are certain cities I refuse to drink the tap water.
Not being a snob, just a funny taste in the water in certain parts of the country.


Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

At home, I'm all about tap water... it's tasty and good!

I do drink bottled when I go to the gym or when I'm traveling though...

Occasionally, I will buy bottled water and re-use the bottles.  Seattle's water supply is collected from Cascade Mountain snow melt.  The watershed is in a fenced off area in the National Forest.  So it is quite pure.  At work the tap water tastes bad because of the pipes in the building.  So we have Crystal Springs water in that fits in the dispenser shipped in.  I refill my bottle that way.

We have  filter on our refrigerator, so I guess it's tap water.  Interesting topic for today....  Anyone see the reports of the drugs that were found in tap water across the US?  I know the amounts are very little, but WTF?
