To be fair, there are places across the world and particularly in the US where the water doesn’t taste or smell good, but even then bottled water will do so much better. Though I’m in the UK, I’m considering buying myself a filter because the water tastes a little weird here. Not dangerous - just… too weird for my taste buds.
Absolutely get a filter! My local tap water tastes a little weird to me, too, but a filter is great for that, and is so much better than getting bottled. It also wastes less plastic!
A lot of people in the US don’t trust the water, which is strange because you would think that would make people act when a city actually does lose their local water safety but…
Yeah, I was quoting Tom Scott there. His video on Dasani’s failed UK launch is a good watch. It really depends on location lol.
And that’s pretty funny considering according to the same video, the UK has some of the safest drinking water. Though safest doesn’t imply the best tasting.
Interesting. The only tap water than I’ve had in America with taste came from homes that had their own wells, like my mother’s. Her water used to have a slight egg/sulfur smell before she got a whole home filter. Interestingly, though - on days that it didn’t smell, everyone thought it tasted really good.

A lot of the US has fair water when it comes to taste.
Y’all Brits tho. I’ve had you’re water. I’m usually not someone who says “water has taste”, but yours does lol.
London especially, was like drinking straight out of the Thames.
Yeah I’d get a filter if I lived there lol. Ours tastes like crisp refreshing nothing, like better than bottled
