We don't go for flavored bottled water here but I am picky on what plain water in a bottle I drink.

Believe it or not, I can taste the difference. Poland Spring is my water.

We do make our own flavored soda though... go to the kitchen and look at the drinks!

I hear ya on the taste of some waters. I know dasani is ok , But I really like the water that Nestle makes , its called pure life. Since I have been on this diet for a year now , it has helped me out a lot.

Thankx for the tip on soda , But sadly , I cannot drink soda.

we actually had the Nestle a couple times. I didnt' freak out from it. It is a good alternative to my Poland Spring when I cant' get it.

Deer Park isnt too bad either.

Eric, the home made soda is good for kids when you don't want to give them a sugar laden beverage but want to let them think they are getting something special. Works only when they are at the age when easily fooled

I have had Poland Spring, Nestle, Aquafina and Dansani. The first three are fine...they have no taste and that's how I like it. But the regular Dansani water tastes awful! I like my water ice-cold and tasteless!

Actually I get my water via my Brita pitcher. It gives me what I want without costing an arm and a leg.

My water comes out of a tap :rofl:

No honest, I don't do bottled water because I don't have to. The water is ok here, but I readily drink the Brita water at my In-laws because their water comes from a differant source.
I don't understand Sylvia, who I work with. She believes in drinking only bottled water because it is 'pure'. Then leaves a giant bottle in the bottom of the fridge for weeks on end and sometimes supplements with a flavoured bottled water (cranberry or orange). She has the misconception this is better for her because it's colourless, but I've shown her the label before now (full of E-numbers) and she still thinks its ok.

Bottled water left builds up more bacteria quicker (yes- because it doesn't have purifiers) but if water is pure IT SHOULDN'T TASTE!

Sorry I get a b' about this mostly after the fights with my father in law who was once the Head science officer for a large water board. He was in charge of checking the quality of all the water Everywhere, rivers, coastal beach areas, lakes, ponds, reservoirs, sewage outlet pipes and taps.
The up side was- we knew where to go swimming at the beach because, to be honest the sea is not clean, but some bays naturally had low bacteria counts. We also know Welsh water is great, straight from the stream but forget it once its in a Victoria lead water pipe :barf:
