I have heard recently that all bottled water is nothing more than water from your kitchen faucet and purified ,but I drive about 10 miles to get water and it is straight from an under ground spring I use it only for drinking and making tea and coffee why do companies lie I think that it is a disgrace for companies to do this all they want is a person's money I for one do not believe that the companies should be doing this If it says nautural spring water than that is what it should be

thats how business works,they try to make people think that they get it from a good source and yet we dont know that they just get it from the tap,then sell it to us at much higher price thinking that it was the real thing that can be found in virgin forest or far away water sources.and they rake up money by the millions by deceivng people with their bogus products.

just make sure that you get clean water at that spring you are getting your water or you may risk your health with it.much better if you fetch it near the source where it is more clean and more pure.

You drive 10 miles to get water? Is that from the Vermillion river? lol. Many companies figure they can confuse the public and get away with it.

I could imagine some companies dooin things on the cheap to make more money, I think you will find there is a lot of companies across the board that claim things that are not true, I think they put that down as business, but after saying that I would say there are a lot of companies that give you what you pay for.

It some places I've been too, overpriced, purified tap water is the only thing safe to drink, next to real coca cola of course. The bottled water companies are conning us of course, but I think in their world its called marketing. A sucker born every minute. I don't agree with their marketing, but when what they sell prevents me from having heavy metal poisoning, they are very much forgiven.
