>Drinking bottled water in 1st world country.
Do Americans really do this?
>>
Yea it's a shame we don't get semen rations like other countries.
>>
>hmm, I'm thirsty. I better drive back to my house and get a glass of water from the tap

Do europeans actually do this? Bottled water is for when you want water and you're not at home, and you don't feel like using public water fountains for whatever reason
>>
Yes, mostly because city water tends to taste like varying flavors of ass depending on where you go.
>>
>>63039790
Just go to the nearest bathroom and fill up at the sink, senpai.

This bottled water meme is bad for the environment
>>
>>63039711
its called convenience
i don't even buy bottled water except in near emergencies, but don't be fucking stupid
>>
yep, it's true. And I never fill it back up, I just throw it away and grab a new one. Jealous?

yes, I'm from Flint and the water is undrinkable due to lead content.

So what I gather from this thread American tap water isn't safe to drink?

But only fucking African tap water and shithole tap water is not safe to drink?

Why do you have so bad tap water Americans?

I've had the tap water in Bongistan and it sucks too. Unfiltered tap water in general is gross in most places.
>>
>>63039872
>I'm from Flint
Thats your own fucking fault. Why do you still live in an area that is only marginally better than Detroit?
>>
>>63039910
It depends on where you are in America.

The really funny part, though, is that majority of bottled water comes from the same water supplies as tap water.

>drinking water from the tap

Do you want to die, or become ill? Tap water is not purified, therefore not apt for human consumption, yet most persons do it, not to mention that it tastes awful. Appalling.

All day every day. I can taste the old-metal taste in the local tap system, and even if I draw a glass back at my hometown (where it tastes better) I can still see little flakes of dust and shit in the water.

To be clear, I know that unlike most countries, the tap water is safe to drink, and can be had in a pinch. I don't have a problem drinking it. I just choose not to for the above reasons.

American water is dirty and there are no purifying stations that purify tap water in there?

What is wrong with your country?
>>
>>63039965

>>63039910
Most people just don't like tap water because of taste, because thinks like mineral content can make perfectly good and healthy water taste bad.

Flint is just a weird exception where some ancient pipes got corroded
>>
Tap water is awful, but filtered water and bottled water are almost the same. I'll full a bottle with filtered from home if I know I need to, but if I'm out and about I'll rarely buy a bottle.

All tap water anywhere in the world, is not purified, moron. IT IS WATER FROM THE FUCKING TAP!

True, drinking bottled water at home is retarded, but in many places it helps to use a filter, since the water doesn't taste great, although it's safe.
>>
>>63040038
Just get a water filter. Water in my home town was the cleanest anywhere I've lived. City water tastes like shit, so we filter it.

They put a filter on the well where I live now recently and it's pretty much perfect now...

Lets put it this way, we like knowing where our water comes from.

I can walk into any restaurant, cafe or diner and ask for a glass of water. I can drink from any water fountain. I could even fill up a bottle from a sink in a public rest room. However, I have no idea who touched any of that before I did.

We live in a world where other peoples hygiene cannot be guaranteed. I trust a machine that filled up a piece of plastic more than I trust someone working minimum wage or a random fountain sitting in the middle of a park.
>>
>>63040242
I'm not drinking out of someone's disgusting mug. Do you even have automatic dishwashers in Europe?
>>
>>63040422
but it runs through purifier in modern countries

isnt america up to date?
>>
>>63040038
A water filter is way cheaper than bottled water, and it makes the water taste good. They're like $8 and last around 2 months.

In Canada at least, our saftey standards for tap water are actually more restrictive than those placed on bottled water. But tap water doesn't have shit loads of fucking salt in it, so dipshits complain about how it doesn't "taste like water".
>>
>>63041004
Ah. Fair enough. I thought they were synonymous.

The tap water in my city comes with a notice that it can cause cancer over long term consumption. So yeah, bottled for me thanks

Demineralizing water through reverse osmosis or nano-filtration does however render it potentially harmful to humans.

I wonder just how little water your average "not that healthy minded" person drinks.

Like. Before I stopped drinking soda I almost drank water fairly rarely because why not just drink some soda instead?

bottled water doesn't actually have to follow government regulations or purification standards

I get my tap water from Lake Michigan and it used to be some of the grossest water in the country, but now it's okay

I live in Calgary and, having been to the states quite a few times, I can say that tap water in the States is horrid. It's like gulping down shitty morning-breath saliva. It actually stinks and tastes bad.

By far the worst tap water you can find is in Florida. I swear there's some fuck at their water treatment facility who just gargles water and spits it back just to make it extra shitty.
