Bottled water.

[God]

I've had Evian (Most expensive) and then all others for 1/3 of the price and tastes the same to me. Some of my friends swear that there is such a thing as premium and not premium water. I say it's bull.

Your thoughts?.

Water is water. The "taste" of water (which is tasteless) is from dissolved minerals.

Am I the only one that drinks from the tap?.

There are places in BC where you can pull over to the side of the road and fill your water bottles with pure spring water. I've tasted fresh spring water at the source on top of mountains and it tastes better than anything else - but everything tastes better when you're on top of a mountain.

My favorite source of natural water is usually to be found running down between the breasts of an exhausted SP after a long hard ride in Cowgirl. And I prefer to drink it straight from the source, no glass, no straw, from her skin directly to my lips. :-Cool/"

Canadian entrepreneur Nicholas Reichenbach says that Flow, his new line of boxed water — which comes in BPA-free, low-impact, thinner-than-an-eggshell Tetra Paks — is “packaged water for the conscious consumer.”

“The bottled water industry is really in need of positive change,” Reichenbach said in an interview earlier this month. “It’s been going through revisions, but the revisions aren’t going in the right direction. We have to say, well, what is a plant-based plastic bottle? is it really solving the problem of plastic? And what is the quality of this water?”

Flow, which will appear on store shelves in eastern Canada this month, is water derived from a glacial spring near Mildmay, Ont., that’s been around “since the last Ice Age,” Reichenbach says.

It’s naturally alkaline, since it sits in limestone, giving the water a pH of 8.1, which “you’d see normally in B.C. or Iceland.” The water is not filtered or altered and, according to a press release, Flow — the first company in North America to launch a spring water in Tetra Paks — has the lowest carbon footprint of any of its competitors.

As for how it tastes, Reichenbach says his water has a silky mouthfeel, but stops there. “It tastes like what water should taste like,” he says. “Absolutely nothing.”
