The Mrs. and I after many years of travel , hearing that sage advice hammered into us..."Don't drink the water", and having since grown from drinking tap water as a child, teenager and young man (and since joined the Service in the 80's), we have only drank distilled water
(I know, I know);

for years...because...I guess it's the 'cleanest' type of water to drink (keeping in mind the deployments and countries we visited).

So, I have ask our members here...what kind of water do you drink at home and why

"Water is the driving force of all nature". Leonardo da Vinci

For drinking or shaving? There's a big difference.

But usually...Filtered tap water from the fridge dispenser.

I drink tap water filtered by a Brita filter. I only use the Brita filter because I prefer the taste.

Contrary to popular belief, tap water is completely safe. Tap water is highly regulated, and water purity tests are made public. Bottled water is not regulated, and water purity tests are never made public. Studies have also found that tap water is cleaner than bottled water.

There is a good documentary out there about bottled water called Tapped.

I've never really been a bottled water drinker, even more-so after viewing that documentary. It also made me more conscious about soft drinks as well.

Untreated well water, just one of the many things I love about living outside the city limits.

I don't ever drink water. Whatever kind of water is in Mountain Dew and Coors Light, that's the kind I drink.

Nothing tastes as good as cold water from a garden hose on a hot day. Nothing.

Tap water also has added fluoride. I drank kool-ade made with tap water growing up and only had 1 cavity, which was really small and the dentist did more work drilling and filling than just leaving it. My wife drank well water and has several.

Whatever water Evan Williams uses....

I drink filtered tap water. I just have a Brita pitcher in the fridge. Also, I'm cheap and I don't change the filters as often as I probably should, so sometimes it's not even very filtered. My town recently got a pipeline so we can tap into water from a larger place. It's been an improvement. Not that I ever worried about the safety of our water, it was just hard and tasted a bit on the metallic side before. The new source would taste fine straight out of the tap as long as it's cold, but I find that filtering it prevents it forming stains on the inside of the cup when I make tea.

Tap water. I drives me crazy when my family pays big money for water. Total nonsense!!

I drink tap water filtered through a PUR Pitcher.

Amen.

Fluoride should be banned from the water supply not added to it.
