    Bottled or Tap water?

    Pretty basic, but which do you prefer?

    If bottled, do you have a favorite?


    Is there a way to do polls on here lol

    I prefer tap water I suppose, but past that I am picky in the sense that I will only drink cold water. I cannot stand room temperature water... if I had to pick between room temperature bottled water or barely-cold tap water though, I prefer room temperature bottled water I think

    I refill a bottle for the fridge and put it in there, then refill a stainless tumbler throughout the day

    If we really get in to it, brand wise, if I am at a store and they are selling water I am likely to buy Life Water, Dasani (yes I said it I think it is different by region, it tastes fine here...), or Core. I cannot stand Aquafina, Evian, or Arrowhead (a regional brand I think).

    I do LOVE water, though... a lot. I drink it all day every day.

    I am not a tap water fan, but I do like fridge water!
    I used to only be able to drink Nestle bottled water but then Real Canadian went on sale more and I’m a sucker for saving (even if it’s pennies lol it’s a thrill).

    Personally I'm down with tap water! I hate all the plastic waste that bottled water makes. However we live on a rural property with a well and we don't drink our tap water. It's ok to cook and shower but we'd rather not drink it. What we do is buy the bid jugs of water then refill them whenever they empty and we have emergency bottled water just in cade. When we lived in town we had a fridge that had water and I've and that was amazing! So when it comes to team tap vs team bottle I amd team tap!

    Depends on where I'm staying/living. Any of the big cities I've lived in have had great tap water, presumably because of whatever infrastructure they have for it, but other areas are hit or miss for drinkability.

    It completely depends on where I’m at and if I have access to a water purifier but I guess I’d say bottled!
    To be honest I pretty exclusively drink Starbucks water because it’s triple filtered skwmcowmwl
    I usually keep a 40oz bottle with me at all times!

    I prefer filtered water from the fridge, I'm home most of my days so I just refill glass and plastic bottles throughout the day! My family buys bottled water of the brand Member's Mark as well, which I think is Sam's Club/Walmart brand, and it just has such a weird taste to it. I honestly don't have a favorite bottled water, but I don't buy different brands enough to remember which are good and which are bad, lol. I just try to carry around my reusable water bottles at all times!

    Tap water. Always.

    The ONLY time I will drink bottled water is if I’m out camping for longer than I can carry water with me for. I don’t like the waste that disposable water bottles create.
    Unless of course I am somewhere where the tap water isn’t clean aka drinking it will make me sick, then I guess I don’t have many choices. But I’m lucky go get privileged and have clean tap water.

    Also, some bottled water is just filtered tap water that’s bottled. So just get a water filter instead and drink your tap water. Save the money and the plastic.

    Unfortunately in my case I've grown up choosing bottled water and continue doing since sadly tapped water is not always coming clean in my country.

    After I moved on to north I recall many ppl saying tapped water was safe here but I guess old habits die hard.

    Recently this year we've hit an emergency drought in my city so tapped water has been cut down for 2-3 days in a row, best cases just 1 day on and off, sometimes dirty (and on the good side it made many ppl thinking twice before wasting and more about recycling water). Bottled water went into scarcity like a month ago but thank god it was kinda temporal.

    For someone who left sodas more than 10 years ago and started drinking water and natural drinks this has been a tough period.
