What's your preferred bottled water? I'm usually drinking Kirkland but got some free voss at a work party and it was much better.

inb4 tap, I live in a popular US suburb yet it tested positive for ecoli. It also has a funky taste.

Nothing beats the taste of my municipal tap water, everything about it just clicks and it has the right amount of mineral runoff that make it taste crisp when cold.

The only thing that comes close in taste is arrowhead, which is why I enjoy it so much.
Every other brand of water tastes like it came out of a water softener system and tastes fucking nasty.

I'll drink anything that isn't electrolyte water. I was stupid enough to pay 3 dollars for a 16 ounce bottle of it, and the taste was just off. and for some reason, the texture was thicker than just plain tap water.

The tap water here in LA is pretty bad, but running it through my Britta filter seems to do the trick. My mom's tap water out in Hemet is fucking awful, though, neither the britta filter, nor the filter in her fridge lenses that sludge of it's awful taste. Fuji is pretty ok, Desani is gross to me, but any kind of off brand bottled water tends to taste fine.

Also the general brita filters hardly filter out anything and unless you change them monthly, they can harbor bacteria in the filters.

It's not like it'll make you sick but if you're already sick, weakened immune system, or taking drugs that suppress the immune system, it's not going to help.

Same answer, different Anon.

AmazonFresh has San Pellegrino in 750ml glass for a buck fiddy.

Also because the filter is a bit slow and I like my water cold I fill a jug and keep it in the fridge.

Also also ice water with a slice of lemon is pretty stupendous.
