Do you drink water directly from tap or boil first?!


Question:

Do you drink water directly from tap or boil first?

Reasons?


Answers:
I drink Tap Water. The water taste good and boiling takes out some of the minerals that is placed in the water (ie. iron, FLOURIDE, etc).

bottled water..tap water is nasty

Tap water is fine. Wouldn't do it Mexico though.

i usually drink filtered or bottled but im not against tap!

i drink it from the tap.. takes to long if you want to drink something right then and there, that is if you forget to boil it and cool it first... if u dont like tap and boiling takes too long for you, you could always get a Britta water filter..

boiled, because once I got water from the tap, left there for about a minute to settle and it was filled with white stuff that fell to the bottom.

Boil it first

i drink filtered then boiled water

We filter water first, then drink it. You don't know how impure tap water is.

I drink from the tap because it tastes great where I live!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with tap water. Bottled water costs up to three times as much as gasoline, and sometimes it is bottled at a municiple water treatment plant, which means that it is tap. Boiling water, if its source is unknown or it comes from an unpure source like mexican tap or a mountain stream, is a good idea.

Most of the time I drink bottled water, and other times I boil it.

I rarely drink tap.

Well I drink bottled water mainly due to doing college in wyoming and wyoming has tap water very high in irons and other added minerals makes the water almost taste rusty, So doin school there i got use to bottled water though here in oregon the tap water taste good it still doesn't compare to the fresh crisp bottled water.

Directly, after going through 2 filters (large ones). Better than bottled and no bacteria as they often find in bottled. I also use magnets on the water line.

At home, directly out of the cold water tap after running it a few seconds. I've already had our water samples analyzed. Our copper house pipes are OK and there is no lead contamination from any of the solder joints. We have chloramine in the water but I drink it anyway even though the treatment is somewhat controversial.

Water straight from the tap. The water supply in Sydney, Australia is filtered and purified.

I drink tap water at my house, our well has been tested and is safe. At work I drink bottled water, because tap is city water and I don't like the taste.
