Bottled water

Confess, who buys it instead of drinking tap water and why?

Ya got me. 😔

It's vanity.

The city water where I live tastes heavily of chlorine. One of these days I'll get a filtration system, but for now, I buy Arrowhead at the store.

Are you sure?
Water is usually only chlorinated as a temporary measure
against some biological mishap in the supply system.

I don't.
The requirements of bottled water fall far below that of tap water.
That is why it is inadvisable to use bottled water to make up baby formula.

Stick your tap water in the fridge and/or carbonate it and you'll be pretty happy.

It's tasted this way since I've lived here.

Don't you live in Aus. or NZ?

I would bet you have better water than a majority of the US.

The bottled water I drink is mountain spring water from protected springs. It's not just "filtered tap water" which is what "purified" or "distilled" water is.

Our local tap water tastes better than any of the bottled stuff, which all tastes of plastic anyway. (Filtered river water from an unpopulated mountain forest catchment.) But if our bushfire summer is as bad as they're predicting, that could change.
