Topic: What draws people to "natural spring water"?

Namj started this discussion 15 years ago #3,771

I just saw a Crystal Geyser commercial claiming that Crystal Geyser is the only major US drinking water bottled directly at its source.

Crystal Geyser tastes like shit. I'd rather drink Poland Spring - also tastes like shit. What's the attraction to spring water? I'd rather drink tap water or any other overpriced bottled water like Dasani or Smart Water.

It's stupid because people don't even see the spring it comes from.

Because of advertising. I would rather buy filtered or distilled water. The reason some people prefer spring water is because there are minerals that get removed from filtered or distilled water and some people believe that those minerals enhance the taste. That is why some filtered waters, like Dasani, claim to add minerals to the water to enhance the flavor. Frankly, I'm fine with just drinking tap, as that's what most of this bottled water bullshit is anyway.

You could bottle your own spring water at this place near my cousins. I also remember drinking from a spring directly while a boy scout (lol, probably a terrible idea, but an older scout sai we could. So we did.)

It tasted fresh though. Cool and nice.

Not like bottled tap water. Maybe it was solely in my head, but that's my memory.

Yeah, I was thinking something like that. All of the bottled tap water companies slap a "minerals added to enhance flavor" tag on them these days~

I find filtered water much easier to drink. My tap water at my parents was fine, but I've not really encountered any water from elsewhere I can drink more than enough to swallow a pill.

I drink tap water. I don't need to filter it here but plan on doing it with a BRITA when I move.
