In 2006, Fiji Water ran an advertisement stating, "The label says Fiji because it's not bottled in Cleveland". This was taken as an insult by the city's water department. The Cleveland Water Department ran tests comparing a bottle of Fiji Water to Cleveland tap water and some other national bottled brands. Fiji Water reportedly contained 6.31 micrograms of arsenic per litre, whereas the tap water of Cleveland contained none.

No arsenic, just fecal matter and mercury

I'm sure the Cleveland Water Department was pumped about releasing that information

Geez. Cleveland sucks so bad, micrograms of arsenic don't even want to live there.

Why'd they only release the arsenic statistic?

What about the 100 or so other factors? Oh, I guess cause FIji beat them in everything else

That's a bold claim from Fiji water. Cleveland actually has a very complex system to purify their water. They utilize heat to boil and catch the pure vapors as the already filtered water passes through the system. It's essentially a boiler, which captures steam. The system itself is known as the Cleveland steamer. Look it up, you won't be disappointed.
