Holy shit! I'm glad that's the UK, because right now I have a bottle of Dasani water sitting her on my desk.....

Some smart fuckers at Coke, They removed all the ingreedients
except the water and sell it for twice as much as the soda. Its marketing at its best!

Maybe you can explain to me the thought process of a person that purchases water knowing damn well it's free in every faucet, lake, river, stream, and toliet in the world?

It depends, I only by like Fiji water if I'm drinking water. Have you ever noticed that nice clean water tastes better than sink water?

All waters have a different taste too! Arrowhead taste different than Fiji water.

from someone who's never drank fucking Las Vegas tap water....you do realize our drinking water here is full of rocket fuel from the pepcon explosion several years ago...

also, we live in the desert where it's hotter and no water = dehydration = death...not like I'm going to walk around or come to work with a fucking glass of water in my hand...

and is it really free? shall I send you a copy of my water bill? ;-)

Duh, lots of bottled water places start with tap. After filtering, reverse osmosis, etc., the end product doesn't resemble tap at all. As for Brita, even their own website says makes tap "tastes better" but doesn't really filter most of the bad stuff.

Fletch XXX · 03-19-2004, 05:03 PM

i only drink distilled water, cannot drink water with minerals in it.

purified only

The Truth Hurts · 03-19-2004, 05:03 PM

I have well water at the house...
sucks in the shower (low pressure), great for drinking (doesn't taste like a bad science experiment)

Its filtered and refined with added minerals, do youself a favor, go buy a bottle for the first time, take it home, take a drink and then grab a cup and take a drink of whats coming out of your sink... youll never go back, and I would reccomend Dasani, it is my personal favorite

I agree. It is my favorite water as well. I prefer the bromate levels be on the low side though

although, to this day, it's still amusing that Evian is naive spelled backwards ;-)
