Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I'm a wine drinker, but it's usually out of a foil bag. And mixed with a mineral water, and shot of apple juice, and a wedge of lemon.

It's a manly beverage.

>> ^radx:

Contrex mineral water, and in case anyone's wondering, the music is "Comment te dire adieu" if I'm not mistaken.


There was music?!? Wow! A freebie!

1. erm, what about the waste of plastic in the packaging.
2. If it means that much to you, then freeze mineral water

Some folks dig turtles, bees bees th' bomb, heaal'yeah...they buzz, n' chill, make food, have sex, and otherwise, like amphibians and fishes, are the barometer for why we fucked up on planet E thus far in that areeeena.....

Indication to dumbass motherfuckers, that there's more important stuff than mineral water and Dolce and Gabbana night robes, (which touch and feel that shit in comfoortable excess fluids, with pussy all up in yer face, is hard ta' beat)..!, you'd be all pissed the fuck off just as Mr. Bee is.......Room to buzz on the pollen, baby.....

that is the most uncool, uninteresting thing i've ever seen.. get an empty bottle of mineral water and put tea in it.... pour water in.. turn on side.. congratulations on your new sorapot

NRDC‘s report (1999) points out that as much as 40% of all bottled water comes from a city water system‚ just like tap water. The report also focuses on the fact that 60 to 70% of all bottled water is exempt from FDA‘s bottled water standards‚ because it is bottled and sold within the same state. **Unless the water is transported across state lines‚ there are no federal regulations that govern its quality.**

City tap water can have no confirmed E.coli or fecal coliform bacteria. FDA bottled water rules include no such prohibition (a certain amount of any type of coliform bacteria is allowed in bottled water).
----------

By law, municipal water supplies must supply its customers a chemical analysis of their water composition.
----------
In compliance with FDA regulations, bottlers must submit water samples, to either in-house or outside testing labs, to be analyzed for physical, chemical and radiological parameters on an *annual* basis.


Only 25 percent of bottled water comes from municipal sources. The remaining 75 percent of bottled water sold in the U.S. comes from natural underground sources, which include springs and wells.

* Mineral Water - This type of water contains at least 250 parts per million total dissolved solids (TDS). It comes from a source tapped at one or more bore holes or spring, and originates from a geologically and physically protected underground water source. No minerals may be added to this water.

* Purified water - This type of water has been produced by distillation, deionization, reverse osmosis, or other suitable processes. Purified water may also be referred to as "demineralized water." It meets the definition of "purified water" in the United States Pharmacopoeia.

* Sparkling Water - This type of water contains the same amount of carbon dioxide that it had at emergence from the source. The carbon dioxide may be removed and replenished after treatment.

* Spring Water - This type of water comes from an underground formation from which water flows naturally to the Earth's surface.

A meaningless experiment given that there was no genuine mineral water in the test; it seemed to be little more than a demonstration of the power of suggestion.

We also weren't told the temperature of the samples, nor how long they'd been left standing (the chemical odour from tap water disappears some minutes after it is poured, and the colder it is, the harder it is to taste any impurities).
