    There’s some Dasani garbage in my fridge that I keep for delusional guests because Amazon sent it to me by mistake. It has an ingredients list on the label. Ingredients, plural. The fuck does WATER need an ingredients list for?

        Funny you should ask. I was shot by the cartel and lost the use of my legs so I began collecting them obsessively to cope with my depression. My wife, on the other hand, doesn’t even know the difference between minerals and rocks.

        that counts under “water”, as you don’t generally go out of your way to filter water and add minerals back in.

        it’d be like listing every element in an orange, no we just write “orange”.

      Only laypeople think that water is a single ingredient. Science tells us that water is actually composed of H, 2, and O.

        Big water is scamming you by giving you water with filler air molecules. My startup takes the H2O and filter out the filler air molecules (oxygen) giving you more water per water. Experience hydration like you’ve never experienced before with our water.

          Yeah, who needs burnt hydrogen… I like your startup as long as you don’t use cans to hold the hydrogen, don’t want the metal to be embrittled.

      How is living with it for primary use? It sounds appealing versus a plumbed in system or countertop on-demand reverse osmosis, but it’s a big space user

        I bought it for our RV - it’s a great option there. Even with the two element model we can easily keep up with water needs for a family of three. The issue at home is just that it does take up a lot of counter space.

    the only taste difference i’d feel comfortable with is metal leeching from iron/copper (had some water from a pump in a nature reserve that tasted fresh as fuck thanks to the metal pump) and differing hardness, otherwise water should be quite standard.

    honestly a lot of the water in the rest of the world kind of sounds terrifying
