Every day to mix with supplements.

No better way to protect against the rona than tap water. Get that immune system up to snuff.

you mean the algae flavor that builds up from baking in a hot damp hose left out in the sun all day?

i'm 53 and i drank water like that probably every single day of the summer growing up and it hasn't killed me yet.

i still remember letting the warm water from the hose wash over my mouth waiting...waiting...oh HERE COMES THAT COLD AMBROSIA NOW!!!

Yes I drink faucet water. Is there anything better than working outside and getting a cold drink from a running hose? Wife drinks bottled water and our "environmentally friendly" recycling can is full of empty water bottles. I drink about half water and half tea inside. Use faucet water for both.

I don't really have a problem with people drinking water only from bottles but if you are going to pour some type of drink mix into it to give it flavor... well... you are an idjut.

Drink it from the fridge which has a filter.

But also keep a bottle in the fridge I refill and
Bottle that has a diffuser in it that I put citrus in

In backyard I keep bottled water in the garage fridge

I don't drink anything but tap water at home. Bottled water in a domestic setting is for suckers in SE LA.

Considering purified Bottled drinking water Is like $3/24 pack and tastes much better, there’s not much reason to drink tap



Where are you? Baton Rouge water tastes as good as any bottled water.

Nashville's isn't bad either, I drink it a lot, but Baton Rouge is elite.

Memphis is Baton Rouge level. Artesian wells.

I only drink filtered water from the fridge and bottled water. Never drink from faucet.



Same, although we rarely have bottled on hand anymore.

It's not that I won't drink from the tap, I would if I had to obviously. But you get used to filtered water, from a bottle, etc. so I think my mind is a little patterned to reject it as unclean.

I use filtered water in coffee, which some people think is weird.

Haven't read the whole thread, but the EPA requires every water system in the country to do testing every year. Here is what I found for Baton Rouge.

Bottled water is one of the biggest scams ever.

The US is one of the only fortunate nations in the world to have potable water in damn near every household, yet we spend $16B a year on plastic bottled water.

Not only is it a waste of money, but are we even recycling the water bottles?

Did you know it takes 450 years for plastic bottles to decompose?

P.S. I don't expect most of you knuckleheads to care at all
