Can you tell the diffference between different water brands?

Can you honestly tell the difference between spring water brands?, I know I can tell poland springs and tap water apart from other water brands but everything else I cant.

Tap water tastes better to me. Spring water tastes like plastic.

I can definitely tell the difference. Fiji would have to be my favorite spring water, followed closely by Volvic, which is a French imported brand. Dannon and Poland Spring taste similar. All Purified water like Aquafina and Dasani tastes like **** to me.

I wont drink tap water. The ONLY time I dont drink filtered water is if Im out on a job and a hose is the only thing available and Im dyin of thirst. I truly believe that unfiltered tap water is a BIG reason for sickness and some diseases today. Laugh all you want, but think of the amount of chemicals that are in your water. We once tested the tap water at my parents old house years ago, because it smelled pretty strong... turned out to have MORE chlorine than our pool, and the PH was way off. Now, do you really think the human body is meant in injest chlorine, among other things?

Besides tap water, the only other water I'll drink is Dannon flavored water. There is no reason I should be paying money for water

You pay money for water unless you find your own spring.

i drink dasani when im at work cuz its cheap ($1 for 1 litre, while 20 oz is $1.29 figure that one out ) but i can tell the difference between certain filtered/spring waters and the filtered/spring waters and tap water. i actually think the best deal is to get one of those faucet filters if you drink alot of water

I have well water and it tastes like crap. It actually tastes like a stell foundry lol. Now with bottled water pretty much aquafina, poland spring and deer park, taste the best. Dannon and any store name bottled water, aka shopr rite. america choice, tastes just like tap water. the best value really is buying a brita filter inline or pitcher. seems to get rid most of the stuff it says, or did what we did we bought a cooler from deer park and have the water dilvered to us. Well i rather buy bottled water then to drink soda AKA battery acid or anything with high sugar and chemical compounds.

I can tell the difference betwen flavors, one of my favorite is Voss, but that's hard to find around here, after that is Dasani (which is not springwater its purified water with minerals added), then aquafina, polands spring/deer park. I stay away from Wissahickeon (sp?), that stuff tastes aweful and it gives me a horrid headache.

ok you people who are spending like 2 bucks on a 20 oz bottle of water do realize you are just drinking tap water with a label on it right???

LMAO this is the biggest scam in the world to me. If you want to filter your water go ahead and get a filter attached like a brita or something, but don't waste your money on tap water run through a filter and get raped out the ass for it.

Or wait you really do think they travel to antarctica to find an iceberg that's been frozen for thousands of years and tow it to a secret location to thaw it out and bottle it just for you... bwahahahahahah!!!!!

Drink tap water at a young age, you learn to become immune to most of the bad elements. I have no complaints with tap water here.

And Paul, COLA? Gimme a case of Corona

Apparently Noah never saw Super Troopers.

Water from an Ice Burg...yeah, that would be the best water, since its only been frozen for some hundred thousand years, trapping lord knows what in the ice...mmm, drink up.
