You're right and correct, but it's a bit insane you didn't feel the difference. Or was tap water over there like über fantastic 😁?
I've got an RO filter for my drinking water at home. I haven't tried a bottled water that I like as much as my RO tap water. I suspect that even if I filled a plastic water bottle with that water and let it sit for the expected duration a bought one would sit for, it would also not be as good. I don't think plastic is as inert of a material as we like to pretend it is, or that BPA is the only bad plastic chemical to avoid.
Good for you to have decent tap water!
But real mineral water is another beast, you can't make that at home.
A lot of the mineral water you buy is tap water. It's the same water the people in the area where the water is bottled drink. It even says so on the bottle sometimes.
Well, IMO not Italian bottled water and definitely not sparkling.
It's the only country having better sparkling water than France even.
Tap water is good here in the Alps.
If your in the mountains, the tap water is better than most bottled water.
The water was still.
I guessed so, tap water is rarely sparkling 😁
assuming we're not talking about sparkling water, which some people call mineral water: Is it really that common outside of america for tap water to not taste fine?
I've never had bottled water where the taste was in any way remarkable, except from some brands that just taste like stale water where the plastic bottle leeched into it..
Well then you have to go on a tour to france/italy, their sparkling water is fantastic (slightly fresh of course).
Especially good on the terrace of a café in the spring ...
In sweden they sell stale water and leftover wine so (gissar att du är svensk 😁?)
