Don't those supermarkets basically just use tap water for their really cheap value stuff

Is that the same as Soda Water?

No, they're not allowed to do that, I remember there was a scandal about ASDA doing that last year or something.

Tell you what I have noticed, that water out of the bathroom tap tastes better than water out of the kitchen tap. :suspect:

Yeah that was the story about Asda that I'd been thinking of, thought it might have just been general practice

I pray over my water and it tastes excellent

My mum always told me not to drink out of the bathroom tap. I have no idea why but she said if I wanted a drink I had to get it from downstairs. I think she was just being mean and making me run up and downstairs.

Bathroom water is recycled from the shower/bath/sink, it's not supposed to be for drinking.

That's not the case any more, unless you've still got an old set up storage tank without a combination boiler. I had a new boiler fairly recently and I asked them this exact question because bathroom tap has always tasted better than kitchen tap water to me.

I drink from all taps, puddles, drainpipes etc

i like water to have a slightly metallic taste.

speaking of water, remember when people used to drink from water fountains? whatever happened to water fountains?? i haven't seen a water fountain in ages. like since the 90's. there used to be water fountains everywhere, and people would drink from them, sometimes there'd even be a line to drink from a water fountain.

We have a water tank in the attic, that's where our bathromm tap water comes from

Bathroom tap water isn't for drinking if you are in a house that still has a storage tank.

I was always told the same Annie but I think most houses have updated boilers these days and don't use storage tanks.

I still wouldn't drink from the bathroom tap though, just out of habit.

And suddenly that fight for independence has left you without clean water in your bathroom :hehe:

Come back to the motherland and we'll sort your boilers out for you.

Why would I want a to have a drink in the bathroom anyway? :idc:

Also getting back to the thread topic, I can't taste the difference from bottled stuff no but there's a fresh water spring where we live and the water from there is the best water I have ever drank in my life it's just always so fresh and cold ahhhh I could drink some right now.

You wouldn't? Neither would I :laugh:

Think schools and gyms are the only places you get those these days

They have a water fountain in one of the shopping centres near me actually, that's the only one I can think of now though

I'm also not a fan of the water they have on the contintent, it has a bit of a weirder taste there especially from the tap, they often used to say not to drink the tap water in hotels over there but it generally seems to be safe now I think

Is it just me or can you really taste the difference with soft water and hard water areas?

Well I hate the tap water in my moms house, it tastes totally different to the tap water in ours but i don't know whether it's hard or soft water....just horrible water
