There is a problem with many stories like this in that they forget to include "other factors"
As a "kid" I too drank from a standard garden hose. and since I worked the loft during bailing season with temps and humidity both pushing 100 throwing 80 pound bales of hay around I drank LOTS of water from the garden hose.
BUT we ran the hose till the water was cool.. thus it was fresh water.
On the RV the hose sits there full of water. If the hose is not "Potable water quality" chemicals from the host have hours to leach into the water instead of a second or two.
That is the error in the above story and why it is important to use a potable water hose. Color is not iportant (Unless you use color coded garden hoses) For example in my Rig are several hoses of different colors White-Silver.. OK
Black.. Well I use it with the macerator pump
Gray Gray tank #2 (Wash)
Get the picture.
