[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless one is distilling their own water in a stainless steel container, and storing it in a quality glass container, they are drinking all sorts of toxins.

Bottled water is just filtered municipal tap water. You can read the location of the source on the bottle, or at least you used to be able to. Perhaps people got mad that their storebought water said "L.A. municipal water supply" and such, so they removed the source name and now say "call for content and source information" which nobody ever bothers doing.

With bottled water, you get all the toxins of government controlled tap water, plus the added microplastics and petrochemicals from the plastics, so you have to pay extra for that. [/quote]

Actually, SOME “bottled water is just filtered municipal tap water”.  As you’ve just pointed out, it’s important to read the labels if you want information about the source.  Beyond that, not all tap water is the same. There actually are some tap waters that I would pay for.  There are also imported waters that I do pay for: like Fiji water, for example. [/quote]
