People Who Still Buy Bottled Water
posted by: Tony
It’s in the news all the time about how bottled water isn’t better than tap water. The latest news is how Aquafina is just tap water, no shit, did you really think it came from a spring or mountain. Then there’s other stupid people that just say it taste better, well stupid people did you know when they did blind taste tests that most people said tap water taste better, it’s all in your stupid head.
Here are some facts I found when I had a guy come to my home to try to sell a large filtler for my entire house.
- The Bottled Water in my house- dirtiest (probably because they store it in the sun and bacteria forms)
- The Tap Water in my house – Pretty Descent, very low chlorine
- Water From My Britta Filter – Just as clean as his large filter
- His Filter – Very Clean
Here some facts from the Penn and Teller Bullshit Show
33% of all bottled water doesn’t meet regulations, and unlike tap water who have thousands of people monitoring quality. Bottled water has exactly 1 person monitoring all the quality of the bottled water in the entire country.
