The point was that all those brands are owned by Coca-Cola, after all.
Was not clear to me.
Yeah, like we do here in Flint, Michigan
A lot of countries have good tap water, in those countries there is no reason to buy bottled.
In places where that is not true it's probably still better to drink water than coca-cola.
Most people don't live in Flint.
Statistically, most people are living in India, Pakistan and China.
Which of those has the best tap water?
If you live somewhere that uses reservoir water rather than groundwater maybe. Groundwater tastes like shit.
Depends where you live and how good your local water treatment plant is.
Err, I say exactly the opposite myself. I hate treated water from a public water system. All those chemicals (and whatever comes off the piping) are far from tasty.
Depends on where you live. In the Netherlands, I don't think you can taste the difference or people even prefer tap water, because it tastes more neutral then some mineral waters. Sourcy and Bar-Le-Duc are even bottled from the same source as Utrecht gets its tap water from. Main difference with US is no chlorine is added.
That depends entirely on your groundwater. In Florida, absolutely, it tastes like shit. When I lived in New York, it was great. Reservoir water, of course, is full of literal shit. Fish shit, birdshit, human waste runoff, etc, which all must be removed by a treatment system prior to use.
If you mean NYC, most of the tap water there comes from reservoirs upstate.
If i meant NYC, I would have said NYC. Damn condescending of you to assume otherwise. I think I know where I lived. My water came from the Lloyd Aquifer.
