Best Bottled Water

I was just wondering what bottled water do you think is the best?

I drink TAU, VOSS, and FIJI.

Out of these three I would have to say TAU, even though it is about $55 for 24 bottles.

Trinity (the blue label, not the yellow which is 'enhanced') from a geothermal spring in Idaho.

Too expensive, so I drink Zephyrhills, a nice local water. Very good. If not that, then Fiji.

I have tap water from Oaxaca mailed in... Yeah its expensive, but the giardia is worth it!

Arrowhead and Crystal Geyser. Not the best water, but good enough at 32 bottles for $4.99. Voss is fun for to drink and Evian or Fiji are my favorites if I buy the premium.

I drink Dasani.

Dr. Ruth had done a commercial for Dasani a few years ago. When she took a sip, very buff young men came out and surrounded her.

I am still hoping that will happen to me

I may be married, but I could still enjoy the scenery

I prefer Fiji when I have the cash, Arrowhead when I don't, and don't particularly care for the taste of any of the French waters.

I had forgotten about Volvic. That is my water-of-choice when in France.

Volvic is excellent! And cheap in France. About a €1 or €1,50 a 1.5 litre bottle.

I like the light bubbles in Badoit.

I'm very fortunate to live in the Oakland, CA area where we have EBMUD as our water utility. Our tap water is great!
