Further to my previous note I think it's fair to point out that selling "pure" water which is really tap water that has been "purified" is not that unusual. The article below says a survey showed that 2 out of 5 bottled waters are produced in this way. That's alright in the UK and I dare say in the US because the water supplies are healthy but it is a worry in certain other countries.

Subject: [USMA:32586] Dasani spring water

I just visited a Coca-Cola vending machine that has those mock beverage cans as selection buttons. The buttons for Dasani brand spring water were labeled only "300 mL." Period. For a moment, I had thought that the FPLA amendment had been enacted (grin).
