It IS a sad situation how far this 'pure nonsense' of bottled water has gone.
What a waste of money, plastic destroying our land, water and sea life.
Hinckly Schmidt which was the most respected bottled water company up North.......turns out the water came DIRECTLY from the Chicago Public water facility.
I believe this is what set the precedent for requiring bottled water companies to state on the label WHERE it came from not just how it was filtered. Because 'they' are not even filtering it. The city did and that allowed them to put that on the label.
Talk about pure profit. They have their bottles filled from the city and then turn around and sell it to the people that are stupid enough to pay for it!
If you read the label you will find most come from city water facilities. And I am sorry the ones that so-called do take it right of a spring fed without filtration, well I know I will take city water over polluted springs, rivers, glaciers any day!
Just try telling the 'bottle of water in one hand' and an 'iPhone in the other' generation that drinking this water is on no value.
I find it real sad what this world has come too. :(
