Real, love me some tap water.
Tapwater isn't free. It's cheap though. But it is just hard to believe that even in first world countries there are places where tapwater isn't high quality drinkable water. I went to Cambodia, where tapwater isn't really safe to drink. Sure, I can understand that. But a friend of mine lives in a large city in the US and the tap water contains high levels of arsenic and lead. Like, wtf dude!
Your mistake is thinking the US is a first world country
Fair point. It clearly is not, for a long long time already.
Our infrastructure has been in desperate need for repair and replacement for decades now
Is that why people vote to have their tax money sent to the rich instead of having these things fixed? Why, just why. Idiocracy was meant as a comedy, not a manual. The food in the US really makes everyone extremily dumb. "Safe drinking water, or a mentally challenged billionaire playing with rockets. Hard choice. Let's go with billionaire for now because his rockets are shiny." "We need health care, better schools, there's extreme poverty, inflation is making it hard on us, what should we do? Let's vote on the guy who promices to destabilize society, deport our workers, destroy our friendships, block the economy, tax the poor, support the rich. Yeah, that's the smart choice! 'Murica yeehaw!"
I have a well and a reverse osmosis system, and the water is amazing. I've never had water that tastes so good.
If youβre only drinking RO water, you also have to make sure you drink an equal amount of beer to remineralize your bones. Itβs for health.
Way ahead of ya friend.
Same. Its the best. Though make sure you get enough minerals in your diet.
You can also add a remineralization cartridge that adds back some.
Bro, I live in a tiny little middle of nowhere town that happens to have some of the best tap water I've ever had. I feel very lucky coming from Orlando where if I filled up my bathtub, there was so much chlorine it was like sky blue.
Well water cannot be beat.
