Many bottled water in the US are tap water with little or no fitration or purification. In a lot of cases, the quality is lower than that from your in-house tap. There are no regs for bottled water as strange as it seems. There are a lot of people who believe that our water is contaminated by all sorts of impurities for some reason. The "organic" food people are a common source of these myths.

Turns out they were filtering tap water in Sidcup and filling the plastic bottles! I believe that Dasani never returned to our shelves after that. Someone should check out and see what the source of Dasani is in the USA!
