Can anyone else taste water differently?!


Question: Can anyone else taste water differently!?
My ex used to swear up and down that different water tasted the same to him!. However, when I drink bottled water like Aquafina or Dasani, I literally feel ill, and it tastes disgusting to me!. People think I'm trying to be pretentious by drinking Evian, but it's because it's the only water that tastes good to me!.

Does anyone else have that problem!? I can drink tap water perfectly fine too, or cheap bottled water like Deer Park!. Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
yes!. tap water where I live (canada) tastes and smells like chlorine pool water!. I can even tell the difference between different city tap water, Toronto water is pretty gross (sorry T!.O!.!)
also I can spot the difference in bottle water!. Evian and Nestle are good, I agree Dasani is baad!.
just tell people you have a refined palate!
which is great for wine tasting : )Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes, I can taste the difference, too!.

Different brands put different things in their water!. For example, Dasani puts in minerals for the taste!. I happen to like Aquafina, but it's just purified tap water!.

I don't like most spring water from bottles, so I drink distilled water, but even different brands of that taste different!. The plastic of the bottles affects the taste, too!.

If you have good local tap water, that really is the best thing to drink!. I don't - mine tastes like fish and algae - ugh!Www@FoodAQ@Com

The mineral content and balance will affect the taste to someone with sensitive taste buds in their tongue with bottled water !.
Chlorine plus the amount and balance of minerals will affect the taste of tap water !.When I first moved from Texas to Oklahoma to me the tap water was equivalent to swimming pool water because of the high chlorine content !. In Texas the water smelled like rotten eggs to me because of the sulfur content !.Www@FoodAQ@Com

dasani water is sick!! i hate it, and as far as bottles water goes i hat that too, we moslty get tonic water and the jug water, only because we live in a trailer park and the water is foggy!.!.!. like when i put it in a clear glass it will be like lightr grayish fog sifting through it!.!.!.!. yeah i made the mistake of drinking koolaid made from it once and i got sickWww@FoodAQ@Com
