I've always been picky on water when buying it.

I always look when walking, for like different type's of bottles, like different shapes or look different to other ones.

I also like water in glass bottles.

I know quite a lot of people like that! Some that never drink tap water which I find really weird.

I'm not that picky..I just like it to be ice cold because I hate warm water ick

I'm not that fussed, I'll drink any water. I hate it when it tastes 'off' as if there's large mineral deposits in it, for instance I won't drink water in a friends house cos her tap water comes from a different place!

Might I add, evian - naive.
Bottled water is a fad. I can understand it can be purer or better feeling for you but in britain it just doesn't matter?

the water in my area is fantastic, it's from our local brae's so it's nice and pure too. obviously it's refined :]

it's not purer, some bottled waters are just tap water with extra chemicals and 'minerals' added to it:P. not to mention the plastic is bad for the environment (A) people should just get a filter for their tap if it bothers them.
meh i hate the bottled water vs tap water debate. tap water would be okay if the government didn't put poisons such as flouride, chlorine etc in to it. my area is apparently good for tap water so i just drink that, though never in a plastic bottle...
give someone tap water in to a plastic bottle and they'd never know the difference - haven't you heard that story about nikki graeme?!

& OP i've never seen glass bottles before lol what make are they:S

Bottled.. just whatever gives me the most water for the best price. Can't taste the difference lmao I have "Buxton" on my desk.

I tend to have tap water though - once it is in the fridge it is fine. Got to be cold though! Only have the Buxton stuff as I was out and I wanted a drink lol

Tap water in Kent is awful, stay far away. It's so hard you can see white bits in the glass - and that's not meant to be read in a dirty way ;) Essex tap water is nice though :)

Bottled water is alright, but it depends what it is and where it comes from. "Healthy" spring water seems pointless, but spring water that is advertised for the source it comes from tends to be alright :) I can't think of an example though as I rarely drink it :P

Sharon
17-06-2011, 08:40 PM
I HATE spring/bottled water, I physically feel really sick. I also don't like the thought of tap water so in our house we always have a massive jug with cold water which is from the kettle to make juice!!!

Aidenn

I tend to stay away from normal tap water because of all the chlorine is contains.

Buxton / Evian are my preferred choice.

The Gov't doesn't put anything in your water, the chemicals added (by the local water company, here it's Anglian Water) depend on what's in your water naturally, so a higher concentration of chemicals, the way it's filtered etc is what makes the water different.

I prefer bottled water (Evian FTW, feels smoother and tasted more pure than tap water) but I won't go out of my way to go and buy some if tap water's available.

Water is good for you, Jord!! :P I pretty much drink water throughout the day at school... orange squash with my evening meal and then tea before bed. I used to have fizzy drinks with dinner and before bed, but I found a new love for orange squash and it's a lot better for your teeth, so yeah! :P

I don't see how people can actually hate water.

I always drink a lot of it, It's probably my favourite drink before any soft drink ect.

In the shop, ,I would much prefer to buy a nice cold bottle of water. xD

I know, I don't see how I don't like it, I just don't. There's no taste to it but it's still vile :( I tried making myself drinking it so i got use to it, I did it for a couple of months and nothing worked still minging

I don't mind drinking water, but I can't bear it in the morning. I can't really tell the difference between tap water and mineral water except that mineral water always tends to be kinda sweet or salty (Only very slightly). I don't really like drinking tap water in other areas but I guess that's just because I'm used to the tap water in my area. Although I reckon a lot of this talk about chlorine and fluorine affecting the taste will most likely just be due to old pipes leading to your taps, especially since chlorine and fluorine would corrode your pipes.

My tap water is fine so I usually just have water from there. If I'm out, and I want a drink I would probably get a bottle of water though:) And, eurgh I hate warm water.

So you'll drink industrial alcohol/denatured alcohol? See how long it takes for you to die.


it's not purer, some bottled waters are just tap water with extra chemicals and 'minerals' added to it:P. not to mention the plastic is bad for the environment (A) people should just get a filter for their tap if it bothers them.

Once again I agree with you, this whole tap water vs bottled water thing irks me. Not only does drinking bottled water end up damaging the environment (the plastic is normally not recycled after use) plus it is usually worse quality water too.

And what prompted this insult? The fact that you said something stupid and then couldn't retort to my post? I should really have quoted your earlier post where you said you'll drink anything with alcohol in it as it would have made my post easier for you to comprehend. Also, in b4 you say I'm stupid for missing the irony in your post when you missed the irony in mine.

The tap water at home is really nice, but at work it isn't, so I buy crates of Volvic from the cash & carry and just keep them at work. I can't believe you buy water because it comes in a nice bottle.

I hate when people say "BOTTLE WATER AND TAP WATER TASTE THE SAME" they really don't, I used to be one of those people until I gave up fizzy drinks for a year. Bottled water is so much nicer and just feels allot cleaner on the teeth.

Never go to Kent then, or East Kent. The water is so hard you can see white stuff floating at the bottom of the glass in about an hour after filling it up. Not very nice at all :P
