Before the bottled water/filtered water phase, not sure when it began, my family was putting tap water in old milk gallon containers and thermoses(or whatever). People made do with what they had. 
The filtered water/bottled water emphasis is about convenience and also marketing. All sorts of inventions may not be a matter of life or death but are great now that we have it. |
which leads me to my next question: how far do you "tap water--yuck!" people take it? do you boil your bathwater? do you cook with it? what do you fill your icetrays with? and what do you wash your hair with?
i just wonder, if you wouldnt drink it, why would you cook/bathe with it? and trust me, there are worse things you could be eating/drinking. you know whats in a bottle of Coke?
