Yea they just have a huge tap running in the factories ^^
And tap water tastes different in different places. E.G Derby and Burton its different.

I think most of it is tap water.
I just wish they would stop selling it in plastic bottles it is a real problem in some countries, as they have no infrastructure and the empty bottles get blown all over the place and out to see.

Most water has subtle differences in calcium, sodium and mineral levels. Tap water has minute amounts of chlorine added. Tap water also varies from place to place. There's hard and soft water...

Tap water makes my Koolaide taste bad. So I usually use bottled water like Aquafina. There is a major difference I can taste in bottled water. Sparklet's is bitter. Evian is awful and tastes like dirty tap water. Disani (I do not know if I spelled it correctly) is a disaster. I've seen dirt in their bottles. On a lark, I bought a bottle of the most expensive water I could find--it was called Penta. It was the BEST water I have ever tasted. It was like drinking pure, fresh, liquid mountain AIR. My parents always used bottled water to make tea because tap water discolors it.

Yes, there is a BIG difference in what is in water and how it tastes. After much unbiased experimentation and comparison, I have decided to use bottled water just because it tastes MUCH better and it does not ruin how my food looks or tastes.

Not visually, but chemically they are. Well, to the point of impurity content. Tap water has a higher chance of being more impure than mineral water because it has to go through different bodies of water, through and pipes etc. And a scary fact. The water that you may drink today may have gone through 100 other people. Not literally that same water, but some molecules of water. Or they may have even gone through you as well.

I can taste the difference between mineral water ( expensive, albeit ) and tap water, and I could tell the difference when I was in Newcastle 6 months back, the water tasted different.

Although most of it is tap water it makes a very big difference based on where you live and where your water comes from. Most people in the US are blissfully unaware of what lurks in their drinking waters. The Midwest has quite a bit of pesticides in theirs. Some older East Coast cities either don't filter theirs at all or they send it through ancient pipes you'd rather weren't touching it. Los Angeles now actually filters and recycles theirs from toilet water (seriously) and although it's probably completely safe I'll admit that would kind of deter me from drinking it.
