Tap, Filtered or Bottled?

Comment comment by VnutZ on 25 December 2007

Generally ... tap water suits me just fine though running it through a Brita filter doesn't hurt.

RE: Tap, Filtered or Bottled? by Brandon :: NR9

We use Brita filters at home, and they have Ozarka bottled water at work.

Speaking of filters, when I was in college, some friends and I decided to do a filtered water taste test. We pitted Brita-filtered, Pure-filtered and College Station, TX tap water against each other in a line-up. After being taste-ranked by 5-7 people, Brita was the clear winner and tap water came in last.

The most surprising thing, to me, was how different the tastes were. Well, that and the fact that come people ranked tap water higher than the Pure-filtered water.
