Favorite brand of bottled water?

[YellowRubberDuckie]

I have to go with Evian because there's not a nasty aftertaste like with some others I've had. Used to love Aberfoyle, then Nestle bought it and changed the way it's done, and now there's an after taste with THAT too. The only one I've found without it is the ones that are Natural spring waters that add minerals.
On edit: Am I the only one that can taste that nasty after taste?

1. Tap

As in tap water. I never buy bottled stuff. '
Sides, Detroit has some of the best tasting tap water anywhere!

[jimbo fett]

2. Water is water. The fact that tap water tastes so gross now pisses me off.

Having to buy bottled water or filtering tap water really annoys me.

[KamaAina]

3. Hawaiian Springs, from the Big Island volcanoes

Ahhhhhh. That's refreshing. Volcanic minerals, too. Don't think they're "exporting" it to the Mainland, though :(

[SammyWinstonJack]

4. Ozarka Spring water

Yum! Think it is only sold in Tx though.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

8. We have that shit here...

And that's the crap I can't drink because it's got a really nasty aftertaste. On edit: I didn't mean for that to sound so nasty. lol Sorry.

5. Ozarka

But, in my home, I just reuse bottles and fill them with tap water. Tastes fine to me.

6. Evian spelled backwards is naive

[YellowRubberDuckie]

9. Yeah I know...doesn't change the fact that it doesn't have a taste.

[ixion]

11. yeah, I like evian, too

no matter what connotations you want to assign to the name, they have some good tasting water.

Don't feel alone. I've become a water snob, too. There IS and ugly aftertaste to most tap water, and many of the cheap-o bottled waters, IMO.

7. Dasani...........

is the favorite of the 'DaddyLove household.

[GOPisEvil]

10. Dasani is owned by Coca-Cola, ya know?

For some folks that's not an issue, but for others it is. So, I'm just passing it along...

[BigDaddyLove]

13. Thanks.......

but not an issue.

[TopesJunkie]

26. It's just treated water -- get a filter for your tap = same thing --

[MercutioATC]

28. Agreed. Dasani.

[GregW]

12. Tap

There is something fundamentally wrong with paying more for H2O than gasoline.

:wtf:

[TreasonousBastard]

14. Grant's.

About 20% water, more when the ice melts, and good value for the money.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

15. What's the other 80%?

Sounds dangerous.

29. Grant's...

8 year old Scotch.

<Whoosh!>

I rarely drink water, since, as WC Fields said, "Fish fuck in it."

If I'm going to buy something to drink, it's usually a soda, iced teas, etc. At home, I filter the tap water and make coffee and tea to drink.

16. Penn & Teller did a thing on bottled water

for their Showtime special, Bullshit!

They went into a fancy restaurant and put water from a garden hose into bottles and labeled them with names like "Brazillian Rainforest Water" and whatnot.

People swore up and down that some of the water tasted better than others, but they were all the exact same water! Interestingly enough, the more the "waiter" played up the water as rare, or expensive, the better the people thought it tasted.

Personally, I drink Daisani (on trips, at work, etc.)

[YellowRubberDuckie]

18. I saw that...that was genius, and so true...

But I can seriously tell you the difference between Ozarka and Evian.

[beevul]

17. This might sound crazy...

but I used to buy a brand called Mister Pure.

That was the best water I ever tasted, and I grew up on MN well water.

[LynneSin]

19. Deer Park or Poland Springs

I can't stand the taste of Evian.

I'd drink my tap water but it's nasty. I've even put a filter on it and I still can't drink it.

[arwalden]

20. Omnifilter Tap

[bleedingheart]

21. Westmoreland county tap water

I keep it in a bottle in the fridge to keep it cooler than it is coming out of the tap...

[stopbush]

22. Vittel - the "other" French l'eau plat. Better than Evian, IMO.

We get it here in Vegas - $1.89 for a large bottle.

BTW - you have to drink bottled or filtered water here. Lake Mead has dropped like 40 feet due to the drought, and the authorities are worried that pollutants in the water that usually stay near the surface and eventually break down naturally are now coming dangerously close to the submerged intake valves at Hoover Dam. Many homes here have filtration systems, but they run at least $5000.

For everyday drinking, we buy Von's brand or Crystal Geyser (about 20¢ for a 12-16 oz bottle), but my favorite taste-wise is Vittel.

[Kellanved]

27. You should try the "third" French l'eau plat: Volvic

Other than that my favourite is Güstrower...

[Kat45]

23. Usually Daisani. Sometimes Poland Spring/

[GOPisEvil]

25. Poland Spring is good

I had that last time I was back east.

[SmileyBoy]

24. There's a little known brand in Canada called Volvic.

It's as smooth as silk.

On the other side of the coin, Aquafina and Dasani are bitter and nasty. They taste like plastic.

[travisleit01]

30. Fiji water for me.

Water from school water fountains tastes like blood or rust. But usually I get a big fiji bottle and just fill it up from the Pur water filter on the sink at home.

32. Zephyrhills Is Great To.

31. Chippewa Springs

From a protected spring in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. Rated as pure now as it was in 1887.

This is the spring that makes Leinenkugels beer the wonder that it is, too :)

33. Calistoga

:toast:

:beer:

[Blue-Jay]

34. Tap + Brita Filter can't be beat.

Makes good coffee too.
