Tap water all the way. Flourides for healthy teeth and other elements like calcium that I don't get enough of in my diet.

I'm so used to the crap in tap water that I think bottled water tastes bland.

:D

you ever go to the science centre, and do that water drinking test?
they've got three types of water fountains, and you drink from each one. and then you go and enter in your answers on a computer, and it tells you which water is from where.

anywho, even with bottled water, they say you shouldn't reuse the bottles over and over again. baterica can grow in them, and then you'd be drinking down bacteria-filled water. ewww.

Re: Do you trust your Water Supply?

Well our tap water is high in calcium (or one of the minerals I don't remember) so we drink and cook with bottle water.

Bottled water, but i doubt its any better than tap water.

@Gemini the Great

I am not an expert but as far as I know, it's because of the poor waste water treatment either through wells or done by government agencie and mostly professionals can do something about it such as reverse osmosis and flitration etc.

PS: I was referring towards the water here in the US... I didn't know that you were talking about water in Pakistan. :-)

Stick to bottled water then!

**Either one, but the bad experiences have always been in Pakland, since most of us get homesick for the old country, but the visit home can be ruined by total dehydration if you know what I mean...:( **

@Evilmastermind

they spike the water now ... no wonder half of the nation has gone crazy :D

**I think you need check your stethoscope Doc, some of the best Water that they use for bottling comes from Swat Pakistan:) **

**They say it has the needed mineral content to promote good health..that kinda falls in your line of work right. .:) **

Bottled Water all the way. And not just any, only Mount Franklin.

Hate the other cheap ones.

You know I once had this Evian or whatever bottled water and its no match for Mount Franklin.

Mount Franklin, you must be down under in Ausie land?..:)

I dont trust most municipal water supplies, even though they have to go through higher due diligence than bottled water. One big issue with water bottles that people do not realize is not the water at all, but the container, that cheap plastic has all kinds of crap in it. my preferred bottled water..

Voss, not that I ca always fnd it

**Your right Pir Sahib, lately there was concern about PCB's produced by the plastic used in containers when they are heated. so as long as you keep the bottle cool and not be overzealous and boil the bottle with the water in it............:D **

@Afridi786

its the same water, bottled or regular, they just run it thru a tap...and give it a fruity name.

**"Tooty Fruity" sells...:) **

Yes 'smilestar' we experinced that with some 2 gallon plastic bottles we were using to carry home water from a local 200 ft deep artesian well or spring, after a few months even though they were being thoroughly rinsed, I noticed green algea growing at the bottom, and the only way to get rid of it was to rinse with chlorine bleach so we were back to square one..:(

Re: Do you trust your Water Supply?

@shweetdreamz

bottled water as much as i can. poland spring or fiji. i hate the taste of evian or tap water...the tap water in my neighborhood has a real bad flavor to it. plus its full of flouride and heavy metals saara taste aata hai blekhhh! i dont understand why people pay the same amount for bottled water such as dasani...which is nothing but purified tap water,

**You never tried "Perrier" ...:) **

We bring water from the near by canal in a pitcher

***Been there and done that, the trip was fun and so was the dip:D ***

@Shikra

Our house in the city and in the village have those motor pumps that pull water directly from earth. In addition, we have a tube-well on our farm house in village, that also pulls water from earth. That is the BEST taste of water I have ever drunk. Bottled water or treated water is NOTHING compared to that.

Deep Strata Water is the best I agree.

One big issue with water bottles that people do not realize is not the water at all, but the container, that cheap plastic has all kinds of crap in it. We are not at a stage in US where these containers have the type of restictions in effect like food wrapping in germany which have to be free of certain materials e.g. lead.

are individual 8 oz bottles also dangerous or is it only the one gallon ones (since they water tend to stay in them for longer?)
i read this somewhere too...they recommended buying the glass bottles (poland spring has them but they are seem like such a hassle to carry around )

SindSagar: i've never seen the perrier brand in nyc. fiji seemed to be the purest to me (artesian) but i keep going back to poland spring because fiji tastes like well-water (kuwaein ka paani)
