I haven't taken one of those test but I know which one tastes the best...bottled water. Taste buds don't lie.

 i rather have bottle water as our tap water doesn't taste very well we will be putting in a filter
and it will be fine.
But i enjoy mu bottle water cold and very easy take with you with the cap on no spills
and i love my water. It fills me up and they say it stop you from eating so much like i do
so my best i like is bottle water.

I drink tap water all the time. Bottled water does not agree with me if I drink it a lot.

I prefer bottle water because it is treated. Tap water is not filtered or treated.

Bottled water. It cost more but I can't stand the taste of tap water. Just thinking what is in tap water makes me sick.

I agree with sdecaro558, it matters where the area is. I like tap water but there is some places where is tastes like chlorine. I drink tap water, but it is filtered.  :)

Haven't taken a test but we can't drink our tap water - tastes like chlorine bleach as it is "city" water - we have to pay a lot of money for water we can't even drink.  How is that for justice.

Never did a blind test however I can't drink my tap water, it smells like sulphur and I don't trust my well water for drinking - bottled water is expensive but that is what we drink.

I have been to a water treatment plant.  I will never drink tap water.  It contains too much toxins, flouride, and drugs.  That's right.  There are drugs in tap water.   Water treatment plants do NOT filter drugs out.  Nor will a home water filter.

While these drugs are minute, like anything, drink the water long enough and the drugs build up in the system.

Bottled is clearly the superior choice, but nothing beats using the tap like a water fountain  :thumbsup:

Unless the tap water comes from a good source, I cannot drink it as I can taste the impurities in the water.  So, for me to drink water, it must either
be filtered if it comes from the tap or bottled.  I cannot stand to drink water from a stainless steel bottle.  I can taste the metal in the water.  My tastes are quite sensitive.  For me, water must be totally tasteless for me to drink it.
