Resolved Question

Do you drink water out of the tap or bottled water?

My hometown in Wyoming won a contest for the 3rd best tasting water in the world, and it is. When I'm in Arizona I drink bottled water or I mix the tap water with Crystal Lite and then it's tolerable. What's the water like where you are?

Here, it's pretty watery. Really, though, I drink both. Where I live the water is good, clean and safe. No funny tastes or anything. If I'm somewhere where the water comes from a well, I typically drink bottled, just because it always seems that junkyards are consciously put on hillsides where people live in the valleys. Don't need the seepage. Most places in the US, though, here in 2009, bottled water is unnecessary since the water out of taps is at least as clean and safe as most bottled waters and costs far less.

I have several bottles of water that I recycle, I fill them up in the water cooler we have in the kitchen. That things pretty cheap to fill up, like $1.50 to fill up the whole 5 gallons.

bottle- but then again Poland spring was caught using tap
water-perhaps they all may use tap so I don't trust it
but bottle is a nicer thought to drinking pure water
who knows these days !!! but there are water ionizers
to purify water I will buy one soon!

I used to drink bottled, until I saw a commercial about how the plastic never decomposes, and how bad that is for the environment....

So, I bought a Brita, and hooked it to my sink.....so, it's purified tap.

Tap water. We have excellent water here and I am not wasting money on bottled tap water.

Both, depending on where I am and what I'm doing. I live in Maine and have to correct another post - Poland Spring has never been "caught using tap water." THey withdraw their water from natural springs here in Maine and bottle it here as well. They are regulated by the state and could/would never get away with bottling tap water. I think you are confusing them with other bottled water companies that filter tap water and sell it - which is perfectly legal as long as they don't call it spring water.
