I saw this other guy's thread about the waterbottle thingy. Well, I live in Norway and the tapwater here is, as far as I know, best in the whole world. It's actually cleaner than bottlewater, and some of the bottlewater in Norway has been drained from a lake where I get my tapwater from. I think people that buy bottle water in Norway (when tapwater is accesable) are dumb. There is a lot of Asian, French, American, German (etc.) tourists in Norway, and noone are aware that the tapwater is healthy. Norway is (most likely) world's most expensive country. One 0,5 l bottle of water costs like 2,50 bucks, and the tourists are gladely paying that much. Soooo... I got to find a moral for this thread... Well, if you're ever coming to Norway, drink the tapwater ; - ) Anything you would like to comment? Btw. My grammar isn't that great. Wrote this in a rush, and english isn't my mother tongue.

I'm in Finland and have never drank Finnish bottled water. Tap water here is fine as day.

Tap water at home but bottled at school. My school's water contains an excessive amount of salt and the water pipes are thoroughly rusted.

Tap water is fine where I live in Nova Scotia. Apparently the lake we get it from is cleaner then the tap water somewhere or something. But yeah, most bottled tastes bad to me.

Tap water is much healthier than bottled water... Both bottled water and tap water contain flouride.. Also, the plastic leeches into the bottle, so no thanks!
