do you notice the difference in their taste? do you prefer drinking purified water or water from the faucet? our family prefers to drink purified water to ensure the safest water will be drank by the family. we have been drinking it for salmost 2 years now and whenever i get to drink water from the faucet, it tastes a bit different from the taste of the purified water. what about you? can you differentiate their taste or does all water taste the same to you?

My whole family drinks purified water except for me. I drink straight from the tap. Just the way I was brought up I guess. I dont really have a preference either way for taste. There is a bit of chlorine taste in tap water, but it does not really bother me much.

I would rather drink water out of a bottle then from the faucet. With all the chemicals they are putting in our water, its not good for your health. I live in Tennessee and our city water smells like a swimming pool. Now, who would go out to their pool and drink that water? You might as well, since that's what's coming into our homes.

yes, that's really true. the water coming out of our faucet smells a lot like chemicals. i think it would do us a lot of good if we just drink the bottled waters, at least we know that it's really pure. :)

we have bought a purifier for the purpose of removing chlorine and rust that goes with the tap water. there may be other impurities but these are the very obvious ones that come along with tap water. the taste of purified water is much, much better than drinking straight from the tap.

yes, i do agree with you, purified water tastes way better than the water which is not purified. :) cheers!
