Water? Theres much better stuff out there. As high performance athlete, I rarely drink water.
Water is nothing, that's what it is really, just nothing and a few grams of almost nothing.
Bottled water is even worse. Tastes nasty too. When I was working with US Customs last summer, I noticed that about 80% of bottled water cargo doesn't come refrigerated, that means it gets warm and starts getting funky in there. Do remember that bottled water isn't sealed, it's seal only prevents about 98% of chemicals, fungi and bacteria from getting in there. So you got this water that was unrefrigerated for a minimun of a week, probably more.
All of which water does is it hydrates your body, you gain nothing else. I also heard on the radio that it can lower your metabolism.
Juice has an insane amount of nutrients, vitamins, calories, carbohydrates and sugars, essential elements that your body needs with great taste too.
If there's no juice at home, I'll just stick my head under the fawcett and drink from there. More minerals in there.
I drink milk alot mostly, but i like chicken soup the best! I don't care as long as i don't get upset stomach.
I perfer soda, But when i do drink water, it's bottled or filtered, Unless im REALLY Thirsty or im making koolaid, then i use Tap, Also if im filling up a water bottle i use water fountins or tap, But i will not, WILL NOT Drink war, water. Only cold!
I drink good water(tap water)
its good....(hopefully

)if there was bad stuff in my water i would never know
Tap water only. I refuse to drink bottled water, as business regulations for filtering water are less strict than those for city water.
Filtered water, I take it to mean pure water, which is bad for you.
I prefer filtered water from the water machine at the Albertsons which isn't far away from where I live. It's cold and tasteless, and quenches my thirst. I don't drink soda alot because of the carbon which takes away water from your body, rather than actually add more to your body than it already had. So techinally, you're removing water from your system, and adding caffine and other chemicals that aren't good for your body.
I'm not entirely sure my water from Albertsons is completely clean though. The tanks which my family contains the water in isn't cleaned at all (it hasn't been for as long as I remember) and the water machine isn't cleaned also. So, I would say I'm drinking filthy water.
And that leads to the conclusion: I don't care as long as it's my farkin' water!

It's mostly the placebo effect. Studies show that 20% of all bottled waer comes from "a municipal water source"; i.e; bottled tap water. In blind taste tests, something like 80% chose New York city tap water over bottled water. Plus, there is really no proof that bottled water offers any nutritional benefits.
I drink only tap water, bottled water tastes weird.

The only time I'll take bottled water to fountain water is when I'm at our track. The fountain tastes like chlorine. Pure chlorine. But I hike alot so I usually have bottles anyway.
Anyway, my favorite is milk.

Water isn't tasteless.. it just doesn't have a strong taste.. Even distilled water has a taste. A funny taste..
Our water is always cold.. even in the summer when its 100 degrees out. <3 Mountain water out of the tap.

Hawaiian tap water is the bestest its sweet with no chemicals like flourine and chlorine i can hear your jealousy

Filtered still is better plus reverse osmosis.
there is no bestest, its not a word
Anyways i drink bottled water, dont trust any other ;o
I had some water out of a hose tap at a corner store at night. That fuxxed my stomach up a lot. It's better, but I felt like crap for a while. Filtered water ftw.
Even if water slows your metabolism down (which I'm not convinced it does, sources please?), it's would negate whatever adverse effects because it has no nutritional content whatsoever (unless you add stuff to it). And not to be mean, but was the person that said "most" and "20%" in that context trying to be funny?

You obviously havent drank the water i have

FILTERED WATER, TAP WATER TASTED DISGUSTING!
Definately filtered. Tap water not only taste bad, but I'm pretty much suspicious
about its contents. Plus the smell of tap water just stops me from drinking it.
My friend's dad runs the water plant for my county, and once a month he'll have some mean person call him up and yell at him on the phone about how he's poisoning everyone with chemicals in the water. And he has to slowly explain to them, why they're idiots.
This whole water thing is marketing at it's best.
Figi water all the way its so good. and dont say that water is water there is a difference and i think figi water is teh best. meaning bottled i jack alot of dasani water bottles from mcdonalds (i work there)
Like i said, tap water is the best for these damn reasons
Its F**King Free (free is always better even if its c**p, you can sell it for a penny lol)
It has the good stuff u need. (the chlorine is in their to keep it sanitary)
It has sodium flouride (toothpaste stuff)
Its Free
F **king good
R eally mineralized (GO SCV lol)
E xtra power source
E lite tap water.
Filtered Water or pop FTW!
I get filtered Texas water from my fridge. Texas water taste more minerally than the water did in Canada

. It's all good though when it's cold.
I like deer park, but I also love Snapple, Frappuccino, Energy Drinks, Soda, etc.
But my choice of water is bottled Deer Park. SOOO much better.
You didn't list the various types of tap water. There is city water and there is also well water. Where I live we have a well. 92 feet down there are natural streams of water. Straight out of my faucet it's the best. Better than bottled water. I wont ever drink water from the city. It always tastes... Weird compared to the water I'm use to.
Well water, FTW!
