They're both purified tap water, so it seems reasonable to compare them. I'm just trying to figure out how Pepsi's product (Aquafina) consistently tastes much worse. Not everyone cares or even notices, though, as far as I can tell. I believe Aquafina still sells better than Dasani.

Yeah, I always chuckle at people who buy Aquafina or Dasani. They don't realize that they're stuck with whatever tap water the bottler is using. Hopefully it produced in a part of the country with decent water. ALWAYS look for something that says spring water as it is well spring water.

You and your very "dry" sense of humor.

Naleczowianka is by far my choice. Its a Polish bottled water that has the most amazingly clean taste. Can be found anywhere Polish people are found (aka...all polish delis in the US) and a lot of Europe.

Evian, Vittel, Fiji, for cheap stuff, Crystal Geyser.
Borzhomi in ex-Soviet countries is good.

my opinion

In my opinion Fiji or Poland Spring are the best.

I really like NAYA water, however I can't find it anywhere anymore. Otherwise I just drink the Nestle water from good old Wal-Mart.

I am really waiting for the Trump Ice to make it to my local area too!

I just had my first can of Mendota Springs (unflavored) today and was impressed. Not a bad tasting water!

It's water!

Tasteless, with varying mineral compositions.
I go by the package (on rare times I need to buy it).

Like the Fiji 500ml bottles with a palm frond image at the back (viewed throuhh bottle as a window);

The Norwegian bottle (quite a heavy bottle) which resembles a toiletry/shampoo bottle, in glass, is nice too.

I also vote for Fiji, however many of the bottled waters, cheap and expensive, taste similar to me unless I really want to concentrate and ponder the water I'm guzzling. I don't like Evian though, to me it has a "chalky" taste.
