   You don’t have to buy bottled water in California. The tap water is fine. In fact, studies have shown that bottled water is not better for you than tap water. There may be exceptions, but generally that is true.

   Some bottled waters are downright bad. Some are substandard to begin with, while others sit for ages in less than ideal conditions. And then there is the quality of the plastic to consider.

   You have to look up just what bottled water is good as well as the plastic…but no plastic is good, but there’s no choice. I would never drink from the tap ever again…When I was a kid we’d drink right out of the garden hose as well….it was all good then and tasted great, but that was a hundred years ago…Too much underground polution now…

   I swear, some people would be unhappy with distilled water from purest mountain air. http://www.treehugger.com/clean-technology/clean-water-appears-out-of-thin-air-with-ecoloblue.html

   Biased study if there ever was one. Really. If you can taste the difference (and you can), then your body can tell the difference.

    0% of NYC water is recycled into drinking water, mostly it goes to other things.

    Lake Michigan straight has beaten some of the most advertised brands. If you want to make sure about your water, use a filter system. Most of them remove most of the chloine odor/taste and any bacteria or contamination that it picked up in the pipes.

    They say NYC has some of the best water, through granite tunnels up toward NJ and the Catskills.
