IT'S SO FUCKING AMAZINGGG, but I would understand if you live in the States (or almost any of the countries I have been to) Guess I am spoiled with the water cleaning system over here ^^ Right, because everything in Europe is better right? I'll have you know that after Milwaukee and Las Vegas poisoned people, both cities upgraded to some of the most advanced anti-microbial water technology in the world. I should know, I was one of the people who got sick from the incorrectly treated water in the 90s. So, take that! :S Actually the real difference is probably that many smaller American cities rely on well water, which tends to have more minerals such as calcium that can change the taste.

It will taste fresh and a tiny bit like lemon. Want to put some life in your water? Add some scotch. Get your 8 glasses a day in, and you'll be the life of the office! | ||

Anyway, I've never experienced bad tasting water or something, but if you want to make water taste better, I'd suggest you add lemonade. Your talking out of your ass. Tap water better than supermarket water bottles? I would agree with you if you lived in the mountains and in a small village but that's just bullshit you talking. | ||

I would agree with you if you lived in the mountains and in a small village but that's just bullshit you talking. No, sorry you are the one talking complete bullshit. You've been watching too many of those water filter commercials where they tell you that the water in the mountains is so pure and clean but in urban areas you need to buy their stuff. Sorry, but water anywhere can be contaminated. Even natural springs can contain heavy metals, lead, arsenic, and even radioactive substances like Radium. All natural rivers, even those fed by the melting of clean mountain snow are going to contain a nasty assortment of microbes including bacteria and parasites that could make you very sick. Further, without water chlorination that is applied by most modern water treatment processes, even initially clean water traveling through leaky underground pipes could very easily become contaminated with microbes again. I'm not sure what the European standards are, but I assume they are similar to the US where the EPA enforces water quality standards with an iron fist (of bureaucracy). I would take tap water in the Netherlands over water from some remote mountain village any day. Sorry, but I prefer to have chemists test my water for lead and radioactive shit before I drink it.

It's just really good, every time I come back from a holiday to almost any country I realize how good the tap water tastes here  | ||
