Why does hose water taste so delicious?!
Answers: =P I know hose water is bad for you, just wondering.
because your typical garden hose is made of pvc, and pvc can contain lead. the brass fitings on the hose can also contain lead. currently, california requires a warning label on hoses.

lead (lead acetate) has a sweet taste to it.
for lead free hoses, look for one that has a blue strip on it and labeled as such.

Because it is very cold. Yes it may be bad for you but so is most of the other stuff you consume everyday. As long as you don't drink from the water hose a lot you should be fine.
Hmmm, maybe more minerals in it.
because it's cold
It sure does taste better! Perhaps it's because of the wonderful childhood memories.
