Soft drink companies found out people are suckers and would pay lots of money for bottled tap water. The profit margin is huge compared to selling carbonated sugared water. You do the math.

Are you a retard and buying it for $5 at the gym or something? It's like $1.25 a bottle at Wegman's. It's some of the best tasting water there is, due to the high mineral content, see also: Fiji

It's slightly better filtering than regular water..

But here's the kicker.

Soda companies are making bank cause they don't have to add anything to the water to make it a soda.

Water is more expensive than soda yet much more expensive..
