Let's talk about water.
What's your go to brand?
For me it's Evian.

Bottled water is silly unless you're traveling or something. It's retarded expensive. Just drink tap water. If your tap water tastes bad a $20 filter will fix it. If you want it in bottles just get a reusable water bottle to take with you.

Not if you live in a place with hard water and they use water softener

I lived off cases of generic bottled water from the supermarket. If I'm out I just get poland spring or something cheap.

If I have to buy bottled water, I prefer SmartWater. Tastes the least like plastic.

It's that's true you either bought a non-functional shit filter, or you installed it wrong.

I always had a huge bottle of evian by my bed and in my fridge during my student days.

It is the beautiful elixir of life that refreshes at any time during and after many nights of binge drinking.
>>
>>7410350
just go to where the water softener is located and fill it up with water from the tap at the intake

Poland Spring.

I have a water filter.
I buy whatever is cheapest by the case when I go to the grocery store to take a few to work with me every day.

>>7410321
Not at all. Some places don't have access to decent water. For example I was in Pennsylvania and the water there is treated swamp water. It smells fucking gross. I can't imagine drinking it.
>>
>>7410319
Just two

Lemon dasani. Shit's my jam. Then smart water because I like the cap and mouth piece.

That's when Im out traveling. At home I have a filter pitcher in the fridge.
>>
>>7411212

OK, so get a water filter instead of paying for bottled over and over and over again.
>>
>>7411226
I don't live in Pennsylvania and I'm not going to fucking carry a water filter around with me and attach it on and off every faucet I use.
>>
>>7410321
Not all of us have access to clean tap water, anon.

Tap.

Let's talk about filters. I've been looking into getting an under the sink unit like this one (WQA Gold Seal certified):

Thoughts? I'm just worried about losing my hot water stream in my kitchen faucet.

There are these amazing futuristic water bottles that have filters BUILT IN.
It blows my mind these miracles science has created.

Acqua Panna is the shit but I feel bad about buying it because it's owned by Nestle

I can't believe tap water isn't good to drink as is in US, I thought it was supposed to be the greatest country in the world.
Not to mention something both as mundane and essential as drinking water shouldn't be a storebought commodity in a sense bottled water is.

It is.
People are just fucking babies.

I have one of them and it makes a loud noise whenever I drink from it and it spills everywhere. Don't get the Brita kind.
>>
>>7411990
I don't know man, I live in France and bro the smell of tap water is horrible, it smells like limestone and has a metallic aftertaste.. Still, I drink it but I'm pretty sure it's not good for my body.

The US is really fucking good at regulating water standards if the city isn't run by moneygrabbing shitheads. Standards for tap are higher than bottled water.

>treated swamp water.
If you litterally mean from a swamp as in a forested wetland, that's a good thing and means your water source is damn good. It's likely something else causing the shit.

This.
Flint, MI is a huge fucking anomaly.
My local water is delicious and I have no reservations drinking it straight.

its the all the chlorine they dump in to the water

It's a big country anon. It's safe to drink in the sense that you're not going to get parasites/disease from it, but in many places there's small amounts of things that you don't want to drink large volumes of day in day out

I fill both of these every few days with tap water and sit them in my bedroom to drink throughout the day, normally takes me about 3 days to go through both. I live in Queensland, Australia. I just keep them in my room, the water gets warm as but I don't care, if I put them in the fridge they get too cold to drink.

I have Sulfur in my well. Took awhile to get used to the rotten egg smell and taste, but now I fucking love it despite the weird looks from the wife. If you're ever constipated, a liter of sulfur water will make you shit like a goose.


I do buy clean water of course, but it's generic, or I pick some up at a friends by the waterjug. If I'm feeling fancy I get pic related

I honestly can't believe people buy bottled water in first world countries. If the tap tastes bad, get a $7 brita filter that lasts 2-3 months. Buying bottled water has to be one of the dumbest things people do. But I guess people do lots of other illogical consuming because businesses convince them to.
